Can liver disease cause itching?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

My father has liver disease, and now he has itching. Kindly suggest some treatment.

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I read your query. Actually, itching and liver disease are related to each other. It can actually happen in both medical and surgical cases of jaundice. To treat both, I suggest you undergo blood tests, USG (ultrasonography) abdomen, and urine tests. To narrow down the cause, the treatment can be started appropriately.

I hope it helps.

Kind regards.
