Jaundice is a disorder that affects the color of your skin, making it look yellow, and your eyes, which make them look yellow. Symptoms include yellow skin and eyes, dark urine, and tiredness. Jaundice can be the result of liver ailments like liver inflammation, and hepatitis. A good way to help it is to drink lots of water and eat healthy foods. Get a lot of rest. Steer clear of the alcohol and fatty foods that are so often consumed. Ensure that you see a hepatologist for proper treatment.

A fatty liver occurs when too much fat builds up in the liver, which can be caused by factors like obesity and diabetes. The good news is that a fatty liver can often be managed with lifestyle changes, such as eating a healthy diet, exercising regularly, and controlling blood sugar levels. Your dad should work closely with a hepatologist to create a plan that's right for him. With the right steps and care, the fatty liver can improve without the need for a liver transplant.

Elevated levels of SGOT (also known as AST) and SGPT (also known as ALT) in a blood test can indicate liver inflammation or damage. Consult a hepatologist or gastroenterologist, for an accurate evaluation and interpretation of your test results.

The liver appears enlarged and has an abnormality in the scan; the gallbladder has a distended wall; the spleen is large and looks different; there is some extra fluid in the abdomen known as ascites. These may be due to various conditions such as infections, liver diseases, or heart problems. Eating well, keeping fit, and seeing your hepatologist regularly can help control these things.

The pus was successfully removed from your liver. However, you still have pain in your right shoulder blade and chest. Sometimes, gas can get trapped in the body after surgery, causing discomfort. However ongoing pain in these areas could also be a sign of muscle strain or inflammation. It’s important to inform your doctor so they can investigate further and find ways to relieve the pain.
