13 Common Signs Of Liver Failure You Shouldn’t Ignore (List)

Fever

Fever or a rise in the body temperature beyond 37.5 degrees Celsius is usually not a cause for concern. It’s a standard response from the immune system when the body has infections. People should be wary of the other symptoms accompanying the fever. That’s how it is determined whether to consider it a medical emergency.

When fever is caused by liver failure, it also comes with nausea and persistent vomiting, often tinged with blood. There might also be mental confusion, abdominal pain, dark and tarry stool, breathing difficulty, and easy bruising.

High fever can result from the heightening troubles caused by a liver malfunction. An unhealthy liver, either due to scarring or chronic infection, would have damaged cells and not work as well to clear up the toxins in the body. In addition, excessive waste cause troubles in the bloodstream and the body’s normal processes, prompting fever with high temperatures and shivers.

The fever becomes a serious cause for concern when it does not clear up within a few days and with other severe conditions, especially if they point to life-threatening liver disorders as the trigger.
