Liver damage develops gradually, often without noticeable symptoms until serious harm occurs. It usually begins with fat buildup inside liver cells, known as fatty liver, which can result from poor diet, alcohol, or metabolic disorders. Over time, chronic inflammation leads to fibrosis, where scar tissue replaces healthy cells. If untreated, this progresses to cirrhosis, a stage where liver function becomes severely impaired. Ultimately, prolonged damage can trigger mutations that develop into liver cancer, making early prevention and healthy lifestyle choices vital.
