Edema
Edema, the medical term for swelling, is another symptom of liver disease. Medications, infections, pregnancy and other diseases can cause edema and affect small areas or the entire body. Edema develops when an individual's small blood vessels leak fluid into nearby tissues.
Severe cases of edema can be managed with drugs. One of the more common medications is furosemide, a diuretic that helps the body expel excess fluids in the form of urine.3https://www.mayoclinic.org/’diseases-conditions/edema/diagnosis-treatment’/drc-20366532 Symptoms of edema include stretched or shiny skin.
