I'm really concerned right now. A couple of months ago, I had typhoid, but everything seemed fine afterward. I did an ultrasound and all my tests came back normal, so I went back to my usual diet. But recently, after a weekend of drinking more alcohol than usual, I experienced a hangover that felt really strange. I went to the hospital, and while most of my liver function test results were normal, my bilirubin levels were highBilirubin Total was 2.2, Direct was 0.9, and Indirect was 1.3. The ultrasound showed nothing abnormal, though. My doctor prescribed some ursodeoxycholic acid tablets and anti-reflux meds, and suggested we repeat the liver function test after 15 days. I'm pretty worried about this whole situation. Could this be linked to my past typhoid, or did the alcohol play a bigger role? What should I be keeping an eye on? This is stressing me out.

I'm really struggling with this pain I've had for a month now. I've seen several doctors, and they've given me tablets, but nothing seems to help. I don't have a cough or fever, just this persistent pain in my right upper abdomen. Sometimes the pain spreads to my back and other times to my right chest. I'm worried if I might have broken ribs or a liver issue. What do you think I should do?
it might be due to gastritis, take tablet pantop for 5 days

I'm a bit worried about my liver health because my recent blood tests showed SGPT (ALT) levels at 70.2 UL and SGOT (AST) at 58.3 UL. Could this mean I have a fatty liver? If it is, should I be starting any medication for it? Also, are there natural remedies I can try to help with this?
Nightfall (nocturnal emission) is a normal phenomenon, especially during adolescence and early adulthood. The frequency you've described (5-7 times a month) is within the normal range. Regarding your concerns: _The white sticky liquid_ is likely semen, which contains sperm. _Masturbation_: It's normal if nothing comes out except urine, as the body may not always produce semen during masturbation. _Sex with condom_: Using a condom prevents sperm from entering the partner's body, so it's expected that you wouldn't feel sperm coming out. _Fertility_: Nightfall and masturbation don't affect fertility. As long as you have normal semen production and sperm count, you can father a child. If you're concerned about your fertility or have questions, consider consulting: 1. A urologist or andrologist (specialists in male reproductive health) 2. A sexologist or a counselor (for guidance on sexual health and relationships) Remember, it's essential to practice safe sex and use protection to prevent sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and unintended pregnancy.
