"Facial and Skin Indicators of Fatty Liver Disease"
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a metabolic disorder that causes an accumulation of fat in liver cells, and one in three adults in India has it. Fatty liver disease is closely related to insulin resistance, which can lead to type 2 diabetes, sleep apnea, and depression. Facial symptoms such as puffiness of the eyes, dark circles, wrinkling around the eyes and corners of the mouth, yellow discoloration of the eyes, thinning of facial hair, redness and flushing of the cheeks, facial swelling, developing or worsening of acne, and spider angiomas can be signs of fatty liver disease. It is important for people to manage their disease better through appropriate interventions and accommodations, healthy eating choices, and adequate exercise options.
