Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You have back pain. Chances of back pain due to fatty change in liver are rare. Still you should go for ultrasound abdomen and complete liver function test. These will help you to find the exact cause. Then you should take treatment accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
