Accepted Answer

Elevated bilirubin (6.2) with normal MRI suggests a non-obstructive cause.

Possible reasons:

- Hemolysis (red blood cell breakdown)
- Liver dysfunction (e.g., hepatitis, cirrhosis)
- Gilbert's syndrome (benign genetic disorder)
- Medication-induced (e.g., certain antibiotics)

Review your blood test report for:

- Liver enzymes (ALT, AST)
- Hemoglobin and hematocrit
- Direct and indirect bilirubin levels

Consult a hepatologist or gastroenterologist for personalized evaluation and guidance.

Accepted Answer

Accepted Answer

You're using Megaheal Ointment correctly, as it forms a protective barrier, promoting a moist environment for wound healing; to manage the thick layer, gently clean the wound with saline water or a mild soap solution before reapplying the ointment, rather than peeling off the layer, which can be painful and disrupt the healing process.
