I'm really concerned about this report I got that mentions "fatty liver" and says something about "parenchymal echotexture is heterogeneous." Could you explain what these terms mean and if they're something I should be worried about? I'm feeling pretty anxious about it and just need a bit of clarity on how serious this might be.

The medical term "fatty liver and parenchymal echotexture is heterogeneous" indicates that your liver has accumulated excess fat and its tissue structure appears irregular and non-uniform on ultrasound imaging, which may suggest a condition like hepatic steatosis or non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD); consult a hepatologist or gastroenterologist to discuss the diagnosis, potential causes, and appropriate treatment plan.

View allI've been dealing with a fissure for about 2 months now at the 6 o'clock position and have been using ano metrogyl cream along with meds as prescribed. How long does it usually take to heal completely and will I eventually need surgery for this?
Anal fissures usually heal within a few weeks, often within 3-6 weeks, with appropriate treatment. If your fissure has persisted for 2 months, it may be considered chronic and might require more intensive treatment, including potentially surgery.

I've been taking Claribid 500 for a few days now, but I've started experiencing some upper abdominal pain. It's been about three days, and I'm also finding it hard to breathe properly. Could this be a side effect of the medication? Should I be concerned, or is this something that'll go away on its own?

I'm really worried about my mom. She's been taking cremaffin plus syrup for her constipation and piles for like three and a half months now. But lately, she's been making these odd stomach noises at night, like "doorrr doorrr," and now she's got diarrhea since yesterday. Is it safe for her to keep taking the syrup with diarrhea, or should she maybe lower the dose?
, it's recommended to stop or reduce the dose of Cremaffin Plus syrup temporarily if your mom is experiencing diarrhea, as the syrup is a laxative and may exacerbate diarrhea; instead, encourage her to stay hydrated with electrolyte-rich fluids, and consider an antidiarrheal medication like loperamide if advised by her doctor.
