I'm really worried because after getting a steroid injection in my shoulder for nerve damage, I've been having severe stomach pain. Is this normal? What should I do about it?

Steroid injections can sometimes lead to stomach pain due to irritation of the stomach lining or acid reflux. While mild discomfort may resolve with over-the-counter remedies, severe stomach pain should not be ignored. You should reach out to your doctor to evaluate the cause of the pain and ensure proper treatment.

I was diagnosed with jaundice a few months back, and Im wondering if it's okay to start taking Himalaya Liv 52 now without checking with my doctor first. Could this help my liver recover, or should I be cautious about any risks?

It is generally safe to take Himalaya Liv 52 as a liver support supplement, even if you have a history of jaundice. The recommended dosage for Himalaya Liv 52 is usually 1-2 tablets twice a day. However, it is always best to consult with your general physician before starting any new medication or supplement, especially if you have a history of jaundice.

Is it possible that my liver might be damaged? How can I bring it back to a normal range? I'm not someone who drinks alcohol, but I have put on some weight since getting married about a year and a half ago. I'm feeling a bit anxious about this. Can you help me out?
