Seven days ago, my total bilirubin level was 1.8, and I had taken Ayurvedic medicine with a proper diet. But now, my blood test report shows total bilirubin 2.2. I am 24 years old and have not experienced any fever. Is this jaundice? If so, can you suggest some remedies?

Mild rise in bilirubin without symptoms may suggest Gilberts syndrome or dietary influence. If no yellowing or other symptoms, it may not be concerning.

Dr. Dhankecha Suggests...

Take a LFT (Liver Function) Test Test or Take a CBC Test (Complete Blood Count) Test

Question

Please find attached my USG lab report and advise me about the future course of medical treatment. Kindly suggest whether I should go for gall bladder surgery or not.

I had my gall bladder removed 6 weeks ago laparoscopically. I am taking a low fat diet and have had no problems till now. My report shows fatty changes in my liver and it is enlarged to 16.4 cm. My surgeon did not mention anything about it. I want to know the extent of this problem and whether it is worrisome. I want to know how to take care of my liver to reverse fatty changes, including foods to eat or avoid. Should I take any liver tonic? If yes, please recommend some. I am not taking any medicine currently. Lastly, can I take alcohol now in moderate quantity and occasionally. I am 23 years old, male, 5.10, 87 kg, with no diabetes or high blood pressure.
