Fatty liver disease
This happens when there is a buildup of fat in the liver. If this is a result of alcohol consumption, it is called alcoholic fatty liver disease.
On the other hand, when alcohol is not the cause it is called nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) [2]. This is more common with people that have metabolic syndrome.
The fatty liver disease mostly causes no symptoms. In some cases, you may experience tiredness and feel pain on the right side of the abdomen.
Your doctor may test you with alcohol use disorder or metabolic syndrome for elevated liver enzymes to check for fatty liver disease.
