Technically, your liver has no nerve cells, so cannot hurt. However there is a protective sheath around the liver which does contain nerve cells - if this becomes "stretched" or something from your liver enlarging due to liver disease, this does hurt. This is what is usually referred to as "liver pain". Also, some people experience "referred liver pain" in their left shoulder (there's a nerve from your liver to your left shoulder).
