How to know if something is wrong with your liver?

My husband has been feeling really fatigued and his skin looks a bit yellow sometimes. He also has some discomfort on his right side. How do I know if something is wrong with his liver?

Oh, liver problems can be sneaky. You might feel very tired, nauseous, or lose your appetite. Sometimes your skin or eyes can look yellowish (jaundice), or you might notice dark urine or pale stools. Don't just try home remedies for this, please see a doctor for proper tests. It's a vital organ.

Dude, if you're suddenly looking yellow, like a Simpsons character, or your pee is super dark, that's not normal. Also, feeling really sick to your stomach all the time, or weird pain on your right side. Better get it checked, don't just 'Google' it like I do everything else, haha.

My child had liver issues as a baby, and the main thing we noticed was jaundice – a yellowish tint to the skin and eyes. Also, if there's persistent nausea, vomiting, or swelling in the legs/ankles, that's a red flag. It's really important to get blood tests done quickly to understand what's going on.

Honestly, I feel tired and nauseous most mornings anyway, but if your eyes are turning yellow, that's definitely not just sleep deprivation! Also, if you're suddenly itching all over for no reason, or your tummy is getting bloated, probably time to skip the late-night snacks and see a doc.
