I'm a bit concerned after having my gallbladder removed about six weeks ago, since my recent report shows fat changes in my liver and that its enlarged to 16.4 cm. The surgeon didnt mention anything about it, which has left me wondering how serious this might be. Im all about sticking to a low-fat diet and havent hit any bumps there, but Im curious about how I can help my liver reverse these fatty changes. Are there specific foods I should be eating or avoiding? Also, would adding a liver tonic to my routine be useful, and if so, could you suggest any? One last thing that's been on my mindcan I enjoy alcohol now, just in moderation and on occasion? I'm a 23-year-old male, 5'10", weighing 87 kg, and luckily, I dont have any issues with sugar levels or blood pressure.

Avoid drinking and smoking as they increase the load on your liver. Avoid fried foods and processed snacks. Restrict yourself from having spicy foods and try to opt for a bland diet. You may need to take liver protective medication such as Ursocol or Tricholine.

I've been feeling really weird and tried to make myself vomit by putting my hand in my mouth. But when I spit, I noticed some blood type saliva and felt like something was stuck in my throat. I'm seriously worried. Do you think it's because I put too much pressure on my throat, or maybe my nails caused some bleeding? There weren't large amounts of blood, just some small specks. No other health problems here, and my recent CBC was all normal. What could be causing this? Please help, I'm really scared.

Is it normal to poop 5 times a day?
There is no normal bowel movement. It can range from three times a day to three times a week. However, your normal pattern may be different from these numbers. If you have always been having five bowel movements daily then it is normal pattern for you. But, if this is a new change along with change is stool consistency then you might be having any intestinal infection or disease for which you need to consult a doctor.
