Liver problems include a range of health issues that affect the liver. These include alcoholic liver disease, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, hepatitis and liver cancer.

Treatment alternatives range from pain management, medicinal therapy and surgical interventions. - Gastroesophageal reflux (GERD)
GERD is a condition in which there is frequent acid reflux back into the oesophagus causing heartburn, irritation and pain. If left untreated, GERD can lead to narrowing or sores of the oesophagus.

Treatment protocols depend upon the type of condition and the overall health of the patient. - Cirrhosis
