I'm trying to understand what a grade 2 fatty liver means. My liver is normal in size but it shows a diffused coarse increase in homogeneous echotexture. Should I be worried about this, and what can I do to improve my liver health?

Grade 2 fatty liver indicates a moderate level of fatty infiltration in the liver. In your case, where the liver is normal in size and shows diffuse coarse increased homogeneous echotexture, it is important to make lifestyle modifications to improve liver health. You can take Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) to help manage the fatty liver condition. Additionally, incorporating a healthy diet, regular exercise, and avoiding alcohol can also help improve liver function.

View allI have multiple gallstones with a large one measuring 10-12 mm but no pain so far just occasional indigestion, acidity, and gas issues. Should I consider surgery now or wait? Could homeopathy be an option or is that not advisable?
It's best to consult with a surgeon and/or your general practitioner to determine the best course of action for your specific situation. While you're currently asymptomatic, a large gallstone can increase the risk of complications like blockages or infections, potentially requiring surgery. Homeopathy is not a scientifically proven treatment for gallstones and may not be effective, according to medical professionals
