Brief Answer:
Please tell me more

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Please tell me more about your pain. How long have you had it? Is it constant, or does it come and go? Have you had any testing done for it yet? Why do you think it is coming from your liver?

In general, if you are having pain in the right upper part of the abdomen, where the liver is, there could be many causes for this, including gallbladder stones and hepatitis. Gallbladder pain usually comes on after eating and lasts a few hours, sometimes longer. Hepatitis can be associated with fever, nausea and vomiting. The first steps are usually to check your blood to look at your liver enzymes and other tests, and an ultrasound to look at the liver and gallbladder.

I hope that helps, please let me know if you have any other questions about that, and I would be glad to discuss it with you further.
Thanks.
