Dear Sir/Madam, 20 days ago I did blood tests and my bilirubin level was 0.8 and direct bilirubin level was 0.2. Nowadays I have a problem of stomach pain. Sometimes it is intense in the morning after taking breakfast with tea. In the afternoon it is ok. The pain occurs on the liver side, in the centre, and on the right and left side of the abdomen. Bloating is also there and I also feel tremor in the abdomen. What is it?

Your bilirubin is normal, so liver issues are unlikely. Stomach pain after breakfast with bloating may be gastritis or acidity. Avoid tea on an empty stomach, oily foods, and eat small, frequent meals. If pain persists or worsens, do an Abdominal Ultrasound and Liver Function Test (LFT) to check for gallbladder or liver related causes.

I took a liver test 5 months back. My direct bilirubin level was 0.57, indirect 1.07, and total 1.67. I took the test again 4 days back and have attached the report. I eat a regular diet including non vegetarian food and consume alcohol once a week. I have some doubt whether I have jaundice or not. Please verify my report and if there is any problem, please guide me on diet.

I have a 14 day old boy. According to the lab test report, his bilirubin level is 12.5 mg/dl. Is any medication required, or is sunlight enough? Is there any point of concern?

Dear Sir/Mam, after blood test report, my baby has 14.1 gm/dl and jaundice. My baby is 1 month old. In this situation, is phototherapy necessary for my baby? Is it harmful for her body?
