Extrahepatic symptoms of chronic hepatitis C include abdominal pain and discomfort. The liver gets the lion’s share in the abdomen and sits prodigiously. Any disturbance of the hepatic cells is likely to be manifested in the form of pain.
According to a study, the rheumatological symptoms of chronic hepatitis C include muscle pains and abdominal pain. In addition, 35% of the subjects experienced joint pains (Arthralgia/arthritis), while 14% reported abdominal pain.
The persistence of multiple issues significantly decreases a patient’s quality of life. As per a study, chronic hep C patients suffer from physical, mental tiredness, and abdominal pain. Discomfort in the abdomen was experienced by at least 62% of the participants.
