I've been dealing with pain in the upper right side of my abdomen for about 34 days now. I decided to get an SGPT test and my results came back at 68 points, which I know is on the high side. At first, I tried taking Silymarin 140 mg tablets but didn't see much improvement. Now I'm on Ursodeoxycholic acid tablets, 300 mg twice a day, and I've been doing that for the last 2 days, but my liver pain hasn't eased up. What should I do next?

Based on your symptoms and the medication you have already tried, I recommend adding a liver protective agent like Liv 52 DS tablets. You can take 2 tablets twice a day after meals for better liver support. Additionally, it is important to follow a low-fat diet, avoid alcohol, and stay hydrated. If the pain persists or worsens, please consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

View allI'm struggling with IBS for the past five years. I've tried everything and gone through almost all the tests, but nothing seems to help. I'm curious to know if Ayurveda offers a permanent cure for this and how long it might take. I'm open to following any diet. Living in Bangalore, my life has become unbearable with this condition, and I really need some guidance on the treatment options available. Can you help?
Ayurveda can be a beneficial complementary approach for managing IBS symptoms, and some patients have reported significant relief; in Bangalore, you can consult Ayurvedic hospitals like SDM College of Ayurveda or AyurVAID, which offer personalized treatment plans, including dietary modifications, herbal supplements, and Panchakarma therapies, with treatment duration varying from 3-6 months to 1-2 years, depending on individual responses and severity of symptoms.

I've been having this issue for about six months now where every time I eat, I start to gag and it kinda feels like I'm gonna vomit. It seems to get worse the more I eat. I tried taking pantoprazole, but it hasn't really helped. What could be causing this, and is there anything else I should try?
There could be multiple reasons for your problem. How healthy are you. Increased weitgh an be one of the causes. Also Change the type of food you eat. Take light and non spicy food for now. Your gagging sensation comes from throat or stomach? Take 1 tab Rabekind DSR daily empty stomach. Tab Emset 4 mg 1 tab daily 2 times a day, Tab Herbolax (Himalaya) 1 tab daily once a day. Continue these for 1 week and inform me. Do mild exercise daily and avoid going to bed immediately after meals. Next Steps if problem persists consult an ENT

I recently got my liver function test results and I'm a bit worried because my SGPT level came back at 49. Is that considered high? Should I be looking into any kind of treatment for this? Also, my SGOT level is 34. Could you help me understand if these numbers are something to be concerned about?
Your SGPT (49) is slightly elevated, as normal levels are typically below 40 UL. SGOT (34) is within the normal range. It's important to discuss this result with your doctor to understand the underlying cause, but mild elevations may not always require treatment. A healthy lifestyle with proper diet and exercise can help maintain liver health.
