Al-Marsad Newspaper: One of the signs of fatty liver disease is broken capillaries on the surface of the skin.
According to the newspaper “Express”, many people with cirrhosis do not show any symptoms, and they seem to be in good health for years, with regarding a third of them not showing any symptoms at all.
However, as liver function deteriorates, yellow bumps or small red lines may appear, usually above waist level, which are known symptoms of stage 4 non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).
Capillaries form when a buildup of fat in the liver causes blood flow to slow or clot, affecting blood pressure.
In addition, in a number of cases a red or purple rash appears from “small dots or larger spots” caused by bleeding from these small blood vessels, according to the msd manuals.
