Bloating, belching and regurgitation
Though it has subsided a bit on taking medical attention, following is the diagnosis by a USG. I am really scared. Please tell me if this is very serious or not. Liver is normal in size (14.7cm). It is bright in echotexture. A 2.6x2.4x2.4 cm, volume=8cc hypoechoic lesion, having an echogenic core is seen in right lobe. No other focal, solid or cystic lesion is seen. The intrahepatic biliary radicals are not dilated. Portal vein is normal, measures 8.5mm. USG study reveals Well marginated hypoechoic lesion in right lobe of liver with central mildly echogenic core. Rest of the hepatic parenchyma shows changes of grade 1 fatty infiltration.

The ultrasound findings have no correlation with your symptoms. The liver lesion is likely a benign change, however a triple phase CT scan should be done to confirm. As for the symptoms of dyspepsia, you probably need some antacids.

Consult a gastroenterologist at the earliest.
