The liver is a large organ located in the upper right part of your abdomen, beneath the diaphragm and mostly protected by your ribs. It is a very important organ.

Beta, the liver sits mostly on the upper right side of your stomach, under your rib cage. It's a big, crucial organ. We used to say, if that area hurts, something is amiss. Always good to take care of it with good food and less worry.

I can only tell you that when I had some issues, the pain was felt in my upper right abdomen, just beneath the rib cage. So that's where the liver is generally located. I'm not a doctor, so I can't give medical advice, but that's the area.
