My brother has grade 2 internal hemorrhoids with 3 columns and also fatty liver grade 2 with bilirubin at 2.38. He gets slight bleeding during constipation should he consider surgery for the hemorrhoids or is there another way to manage it?

Grade 2 internal hemorrhoids can often be managed with diet, hydration, and meds—surgery if bleeding persists.

View allmy wife has a gallstone and we're really worried about it. should we see a specialist or can a regular doctor handle this? is surgery the only way to treat it or are there medicines that can dissolve the stones? what are our options here
It's understandable to be worried about gallstones. While a regular doctor can diagnose and manage gallstones, a gastroenterologist or surgeon specializing in gallbladder issues can offer specialized treatment options. Surgery (cholecystectomy) is often recommended for symptomatic gallstones, but medication and other procedures may be considered.

I've just had some blood tests done, and it turns out my bilirubin levels are pretty high. I'm a bit concerned about how serious this might be. Can you please guide me on who I should talk to about this, and what kind of precautions I might need to take? Would appreciate any advice!
A high bilirubin level can indicate liver issues or other underlying conditions. It's important to consult a doctor, preferably a gastroenterologist or hepatologist, for further evaluation. In the meantime, stay hydrated, avoid alcohol, and follow any advice your doctor provides.

I'm feeling fit and have no pain, but my pre-employment test showed my SPGT is 75 and SGOT is 40. The examiner suggested I take Udiliv 300 twice a day. Could you please tell me how long it might take to get these levels back to normal if I follow a balanced diet and abstain from alcohol? I don't drink often, so I'm wondering about my career prospects with these results. Should I consider taking Liv.52 DS instead?
SGPT and SGOT are mildly elevated and you are non alcoholic. We need to rule out other causes. A detailed Medical history including your height and weight, diet history, recent history of fever and jaundice may help us to guide you accordingly. There are ways to evaluate it. You may need to get few investigations based on history to make a diagnosis. LIV52 is an ayurvedic preparation and so I may not comment on it. About udiliv it has got some specific indications.
