I'm a bit concerned about my fatty liver diagnosis, especially since it's at grade 2 severity. I haven't experienced any symptoms yet, like jaundice, which is a relief. But I'm curiousare there any specific dietary changes or precautions I should be taking to ensure it doesn't get worse? Should I be abstaining from certain foods or activities? I'd appreciate any advice or guidance you can offer!

View allI've just gotten over typhoid fever, but I'm really struggling because my appetite hasn't come back at all. I'm kind of worried and not sure what steps I should take to get my hunger back. I'm only able to handle a liquid diet right now. Any advice on what I could do or how long it might take to start feeling hungry again?
give it time: Recovery from typhoid fever can take a few weeks, and regaining appetite may take a bit longer. Start slow: Gradually increase the complexity and quantity of your diet as your body adjusts. Stay hydrated and focus on easily digestible foods for the time being.

I've been dealing with these analrectal cuts and itching for almost a week now, and I think it's anal fissures. I'm using T Bact and Fucidin H cream, which seems to help, but the cuts keep spreading. Even after they heal, my skin still feels itchy and irritated. I'm trying to figure out why I'm getting these anal cuts so often, especially since there hasn't been any anal intercourse to stress the area. What should I do?
You may be experiencing recurrent anal fissures, which can be quite uncomfortable. The use of topical ointments like T Bact and Fucidin H cream can help with healing, but it's important to address the underlying cause to prevent recurrence. To help prevent anal fissures and promote healing, I recommend the following: - Keep the anal area clean and dry - Increase your fiber intake to soften stools and make bowel movements easier - Stay well-hydrated - Avoid straining during bowel movements - Consider using a stool softener if needed - Sitz baths can help soothe the area and promote healing In addition, you may benefit from using a topical ointment like Rectogesic (glyceryl trinitrate) to help relax the anal sphincter and promote healing of the fissures. If these measures do not provide relief or if the fissures continue to recur, I recommend consulting with a gastroenterologist for further evaluation and management.

Hey, so I've got some bilirubin levels here, and I'm a bit confused about what they mean. My Bilirubin Total is 1.95, Bilirubin Direct is 0.57, and Bilirubin Indirect is 1.38. I'm not sure if these numbers are something I should be worried about. Could you let me know which type of doctor I should talk to about this?
Consult with a Gastroenterologist or Hepatologist: This will help determine the underlying cause of your elevated bilirubin levels. Further Testing: The doctor might suggest tests such as liver function tests, ultrasound, or CT scans of the liver and biliary system to investigate the source of the issue. Lifestyle Adjustments: Depending on the cause, your doctor may recommend dietary changes, avoiding alcohol, or medication. If you experience symptoms such as yellowing of the skin or eyes (jaundice), dark urine, abdominal pain, or fatigue, be sure to mention these when you consult your doctor.
