I recently did an SGPT test, and the value came back as 64. My SGOT and GGT reports are normal, though. Is this something I should be worried about, or is it okay?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
An SGPT level of 64 is slightly elevated, which may indicate some liver inflammation or damage. To help lower your SGPT levels, you can consider taking Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA). Additionally, it is important to avoid alcohol, maintain a healthy weight, and follow a balanced diet rich in fruits and vegetables. Regular exercise can also help improve liver health.

View allI'm kind of worried because I think I swallowed a small chicken bone while eating yesterday. It doesn't hurt right now, but I'm not sure what to do. I've tried gargling and even eating a banana to see if it helps, but nothing's really working. Should I be doing something else, or is this a wait-it-out kind of thing? How serious could this be if it doesn't feel painful?
In this case, it is important to seek medical attention as soon as possible to prevent any complications. In the meantime, you can try eating soft foods like yogurt or pudding to see if it helps dislodge the bone. However, if the bone is still stuck, do not delay in seeking medical help. I recommend you to go to the nearest hospital for further evaluation and treatment.

I'm using Himalaya Gasex tablets without a prescription. Is it safe for me to continue doing this?
Using Himalaya Gasex tablets without a doctor's prescription can be relatively safe for short-term use, as they contain natural ingredients like simethicone, dill oil, and caraway oil, which help alleviate gas, bloating, and indigestion; however, long-term or excessive use can interact with other medications or worsen underlying conditions,

I'm dealing with some pretty bad abdominal pain, and my doctor suggested an endoscopy. Turns out, I've got a patulous GE junction, and he mentioned that I should lose some weight. I'm really worried. Is this something I need to be seriously concerned about? I've been on medication for a few days now, but the pain's still there. What should I do next?
No need to worry much follow your doctors advice,avoid spicy foods ,consume plenty of water,and maintain healthy life style.
