Masturbation is not inherently harmful to individuals with ulcerative colitis. However, its important to listen to your body and be mindful of how it affects your overall well-being. If you experience any negative impact on your UC symptoms, it might be helpful to adjust your habits and consult with a healthcare provider.

Question

I've just got my USG Abdomen Pelvis report and it says I've got mild hepatomegaly with fatty liver grade 1-2. I usually have alcohol about three times a week. I'm really worried about how serious this is and if it's going to be dangerous for my health. Could you let me know what advice or medicine you would recommend? And also, how long might it take to reverse this condition?

Question

I'm a bit concerned about my liver. I recently received an ultrasound report that says my liver is normal in size, about 14.0 cm, but there's a mild diffuse increase in echogenicity, indicating grade I fatty changes. Theres no focal mass lesion or IHBR dilatation seen. Should I be worried about these findings? What exactly does "mild diffuse increase in echogenicity" mean, and what are grade I fatty changes? Is there something specific I should be doing or monitoring because of this, or are these changes considered normal?
