I had an ultrasound that showed two echogenic foci measuring 4.6mm and 3mm but my liver, kidneys, spleen, and pancreas are normal. My doctor recommended surgery but I'm hesitant can this be treated with medications instead or should I wait a month to see if it resolves on its own? I really don't want to rush into a laparoscopy unless absolutely necessary. What would you suggest?

Whether surgery is needed depends on the exact diagnosis, size, and severity of the condition. Some cases can be managed without surgery, while others may require it for effective treatment. A detailed evaluation will help decide the best course of action.

View allI'm a bit worried about my recent sgpt level coming out to be 74, even though my liver ultrasound is normal. In the past, I was told that my sgpt and sgpt levels were really high due to antituberculosis medicine causing liver issues. My Att was stopped on March 1st, and back then my sgpt level was 215. Can you help me understand why my sgpt level is still climbing? I'm not a drinker, and my weight is 80 kg, height is 6 feet, and my blood pressure is 116 over 82.

I've been dealing with this navel or belly button displacement for the last three days, and it's really painful. Can you tell me how to get rid of it quickly?
To help alleviate your symptoms, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen (Tylenol) or ibuprofen (Advil) to reduce the pain and inflammation. Additionally, you can apply a warm compress to the affected area to help relax the muscles and reduce discomfort. It is important to gently massage the area around the navel to try to reposition it back to its normal place. If the pain persists or worsens, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I've had frequent urination for years and now my doctor says I also have a fissure. Are there any non-surgical treatments or medications that could help with this? Really worried about needing surgery and want to explore other options first.
