I'm taking liver syrup from home. I'm black jaundice

Male | 34

Black jaundice, also known as hepatitis E, can make your skin and eyes turn yellow. It can lead to weariness, fever, and haul of the belly. This is due to the liver getting sick from a particular virus. To get better, sleep a lot, drink only clean water, and consume proper foods. Don't use alcohol and don't eat fatty foods. Your body will be able to destroy the virus in a few weeks.

Liver disease.But no symptoms. Today check it and getting caught.I have report also.

Male | 57

A symptomatic liver disease can be quite confusing. Liver disease has many causes like alcohol, viruses, or obesity. The LFT result must be reviewed to get additional information. Staying fit means maintaining a good diet, exercising and not using such substances, and thereby helping to manage liver disease. Consult your health care provider to offer the necessary advice.

i am 86 year old, i have liver disease which is casing my leg and stomach to swollen and itching of the body, please which drugs should i buy

Male | 86

You are exhibiting the symptoms of liver disease. Swollen legs and stomach, along with body itching, are the symptoms of people with the said condition. The entire process of removing toxins from the body and the liver's poor functioning that leads to the development of these symptoms must be considered. At the pharmacy, you can purchase medications for your liver that can help you reduce the swelling caused by your liver, for instance, diuretics and antihistamines. But I insist you seek medical help before getting any treatment.

Symptoms to watch for include fatigue, jaundice, abdominal pain, or unusual bruising. It’s important to discuss these results with your healthcare provider, who can assess your overall health, recommend further tests if necessary, and provide guidance tailored to your situation.

I have symptom of jaundice for last 7 years

Male | 22

Having jaundice for 7 years is not usual. Jaundice is when your eyes and skin turn yellow. This occurs when your liver does not work well. Infections, liver problems, or blocked bile ducts can cause it. Tests will be required to know what is causing it. After knowing the cause, treatment will be given to make your liver work better and reduce jaundice.

Hi i have recently gotten a level of 104 ALT on a blood test and my mom is freaking out I really don't want to have anything serious and i'm really scared. Could it be because of my inactivity levels during the summer? I recently gained a lot of weight since I did not exercise in the summer and I am now 5'8 and 202 pounds.

Male | 18

You're worried about your ALT level being 104. ALT is a liver enzyme that can rise when there's a liver issue. Inactivity and weight gain can affect liver health, often leading to fatty liver, even without symptoms. The solution is regular exercise and a healthier diet. Taking care of your liver through a healthy lifestyle is key.

I am suffering from chronic liver disease from may 2017. I was fine but now my serum bilirubin in 3.8 and early 10 days 5.01 without any symptom

Male | 55

• Cirrhosis is a late stage of liver scarring (fibrosis) induced by a variety of liver disorders and conditions, including hepatitis and persistent drinking. When your liver is damaged, whether through illness, excessive alcohol intake, or another cause, it attempts to restore itself. Scar tissue arises as a result of the procedure.

• It causes scar tissue to grow, making it harder for the liver to function (decompensated cirrhosis) and is considered to be potentially fatal by nature. The liver damage is often irreversible. However, if detected early and the underlying cause is addressed, additional damage can be reduced and, in rare cases, reversed.

• It often has no signs or symptoms until liver damage is extensive.

• On damage the following signs/symptoms can be seen  - Fatigue , easy bleeding/bruising , Loss of appetite, Nausea, pedal/ankle odema, Weight loss, Itchy skin, Yellow coloured eyes and skin, ascites(fluid accumulation in abdomen), spiderlike blood vessels, redness of palms, absence/loss of periods (not related to menopause), libido and gynecomastia(breast growth in males)/testicular atrophy, Confusion, sleepiness, and slurred speech (hepatic encephalopathy)

• Usually, the total bilirubin test shows 1.2 mg/dL for adults and 1 mg/dL for children under the age of 18. The normal value for direct bilirubin is 0.3 mg/dL.

• Normal findings may differ somewhat between men and women, and results may be influenced by particular diets, drugs, or severe activity. Bilirubin levels that are lower than normal are typically not a cause for worry. Elevated levels might be a sign of liver injury or illness.

• Higher-than-normal amounts of direct bilirubin in your blood may suggest that your liver isn't adequately removing bilirubin. Elevated indirect bilirubin levels may signal other issues.

• Gilbert's syndrome, a lack in an enzyme that aids in the breakdown of bilirubin, is a frequent and innocuous cause of high bilirubin. Further tests may be ordered by your doctor to explore your situation. Bilirubin test results can also be used to track the evolution of specific illnesses like jaundice.

• Further laboratory investigations such as AST(aspartate aminotransferase), ALT(alanine transaminase), ALP(alkaline phosphatase) and GGT(gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase); Total Albumin, Lactic Dehydrogenase, Alpha protein, 5’nucleotide, mitochondrial antibody and PTT levels need to be determined and procedures such as CT scan, MRI (for liver tissue damage) and biopsy (in case of chance of any cancerous growth) need to be performed.

You can also visit hepatologist for detailed treatment.
