Is liver pain constant?

My doctor mentioned something about my liver, and sometimes I feel a dull ache on my right side. Does liver pain stay there all the time, or does it come and go? Just trying to understand better.

True, liver pain isn't always constant and can feel like a dull, passing ache. It's best to consult a doctor to get an accurate diagnosis.

Hey! Usually liver discomfort feels more like a dull heaviness on the right side rather than sharp, constant pain. Keep smiling and drink lots of water, but do show a doctor if it doesn't go away!

My child, real liver discomfort is usually a slow, heavy feeling rather than constant sharp pain. I always tell my family to drink warm water with a bit of jeera when they feel heaviness after meals. But if the pain is severe or stays constantly, please do not wait and visit a doctor immediately.

I panicked so much last year thinking I had constant liver pain and some major disease. It turned out to be simple muscle stiffness from my gym workouts combined with some acidity. Once I rested and drank water, it went away completely, so don't jump to scary conclusions yet!

Haan na, liver pain generally constant nahi hota, bas thoda bhari-bhari lagta hai right side pe. Actually, sometimes it's just gas due to heavy food, ho na. Better to check with a doctor if it stays for many days.

I completely understand how terrifying it feels when you have a pain in that area and start wondering if it's constant. For me, it wasn't constant, just a random dull ache that came and went, which turned out to be mild indigestion. Your feelings are valid, so please see a doctor to get some clarity and peace of mind.
