Enlarged organs, or organomegaly, can result from various factors including infections, inflammation, tumors, or metabolic disorders. Conditions such as liver disease, heart failure, and certain blood disorders can also lead to enlargement. Additionally, factors like obesity and excessive alcohol consumption can contribute to organ enlargement, particularly in the liver. Identifying the underlying cause is essential for appropriate treatment.

Why would obesity make breathing slower?

Fat is stored under the skin and around the organs. This can make the organs take up more space in the body and can also put the heart under more strain(aswel as having to carry around the big weight of the excess fat) causing it to become enlarged. Other organs, because they are also under strain, may become enlarged also. This causes there to be very little space in the chest for the lungs, so the lungs become squashed and shrunken then what is needed for the large body.
