Diabetes and fatty liver commonly occur together because both are linked with insulin resistance and metabolic risk. Normal symptoms do not always mean the liver is safe.

Why they are linked
Insulin resistance can increase liver fat. Fatty liver can also reflect higher metabolic and cardiovascular risk.
Reports to monitor
Patients may need LFT, HbA1c, lipid profile, ultrasound, FibroScan and weight/waist monitoring.
Treatment approach
Weight loss, exercise, diabetes control, cholesterol care, alcohol avoidance and diet planning are central.
When to consult
High SGPT/SGOT, abnormal FibroScan, obesity, low platelets, jaundice or swelling need specialist review.
