Alcoholic fatty liver grade 2 is a condition in which too much fat is stored in the liver due to excessive alcohol consumption. This condition is more severe than grade 1, which is an accumulation of fat in the liver that is not caused by alcohol.

Grade 2 alcoholic fatty liver is more serious than grade 1 and is usually associated with significant inflammation. This inflammation can cause further damage to the liver, including scarring known as cirrhosis.

Symptoms

The symptoms of alcoholic fatty liver grade 2 can include:

• Abdominal pain

• Fatigue

• Loss of appetite

• Weight loss

• Nausea

• Jaundice (yellowing of skin and eyes)

Diagnosis

Grade 2 alcoholic fatty liver is typically diagnosed after a physical examination and laboratory tests. Your doctor may order imaging tests, such as an ultrasound or a CT scan, to look for signs of inflammation or scarring.

Treatment

Treatment of alcoholic fatty liver grade 2 is focused on reducing inflammation and preventing further damage to the liver. This usually involves abstaining from alcohol and taking medications to reduce inflammation. In some cases, a liver transplant may be necessary.

Outlook

The outlook for alcoholic fatty liver grade 2 is generally good if the condition is caught early and treatment is started immediately. The longer the condition is left untreated, the more damage it can cause to the liver.
