liver which side in human body - #18722

Krishna

I am kinda confused about somthing with my body and I hope you guys can help. Lately, I've been feeling this weird pressure and discomfort on my right side, you know where the liver is supposed to be, and I'm honestly freaking out a bit. I've been trying to remember which side the liver is in the human body and if this could actually mean anything serious. It's not just like a light ache; it feels a bit stronger and sometimes goes to my back too. I've read that the liver is on the right side, but am I sure? Like, why would I feel it there? In the last few weeks, I've also been unusually tired and my skin looks kinda yellowish—I thought that was just a sunlight thing, but now I'm starting to worry that maybe it's my liver acting up? I didn't drink much but started to eat more fatty foods lately, and I'm beginning to think it might be catching up with me. Can pressure on the right side really be linked to liver issues? How can I really know for sure what is going on? I feel lost and don’t know if I should rush to the doctor or just rest it out. If the liver is on the right side, does that mean this pain could be something I need to take seriously? Thanks for listening.
