I've just been told I have grade 1 fatty liver, and I'm getting this pain around the liver area sometimes. All my blood work is coming back normal, which is good, but I'm still worried. Any thoughts on what I should do about the fatty liver and the pain I'm feeling there?

Losing 3-5% of body weight through regular exercise and a healthy diet can effectively resolve grade 1 fatty liver in many cases. Limiting alcohol, reducing sugarrefined carbs, increasing fibre, drinking more water and managing conditions like diabetes and high cholesterol also support liver health.

I'm dealing with diabetes and have been experiencing some itching around my anus for about two weeks now. I took 400 mg of albendazole last night, suspecting it might be pinworms causing this. How long should I expect it to take for the symptoms to improve if pinworms are the issue?

I've been feeling like there's something stuck in my throat for about 45 days now, almost like phlegm, but its not food. Its really annoying and I keep burping on purpose to try and get rid of this feeling. I Googled my symptoms and found something called globus pharyngis. I went to see another doctor and they gave me an acid reflux gel syrup, but it hasnt helped at all. I'm kind of worried and not sure what to do next. Could you offer some advice or share your thoughts on what might be going on?
