Hi,
its imperative you visit your physician for what you consider the liver might not actually be a liver region. With hypertension, some patients evolving towards some kind of heart failure might have some liver distension and pain, but with a well controlled BP, its worth controlling. In your case, it shall be very unlikely, but you juts need to control. However, a proper clinical examination, an abdominal ultrasound and liver function tests could help detect whether you really got a liver abnormality or not, or detect something else if it really does exists. Depending on the clinical evaluation of the physician, other causes of referred pain, which might not actually be coming from the liver or region described shall be excluded.
Propose you meet your internist for a proper evaluation.,
Thanks and hope this helps,
Luchuo, MD
