How to reduce bilurubin levels
Male | 23
Bilirubin is a yellow substance that forms when old red blood cells break down. If too much bilirubin builds up, your skin and eyes can turn yellow. That's jaundice. It might signal a liver issue, infection, or bile duct blockage. The underlying cause must be treated to reduce bilirubin levels. Sometimes, medication or procedures help lower the levels too. Don't ignore jaundice; see a doctor to figure out why it's happening and get treated properly.

It can come with signs such as a person being tired, having an enlarged tummy, and having yellow skin. Treatment consists of dealing with the main issue and possibly a liver transplant as well. Remember to come back to your hepatologist for more tests and recommendations.

my dad has been diagnosed with fatty liver and he is diabetic too. can it be cured without liver transplant?
Male | 60
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.

Doctor told me my liver is damaged and that I have hepatitis b. For 2 years I took his medicine but doctor told me about hepatitis b recovery and still me to take medicine for the life time and my liver report turned out to be bad. Since last 2 month I have had heavy stomach pain.

We advise you to not discontinue any treatment course on your own, especially that related to antivirals for hepatitis B. Hepatitis B treatment can also be life-long in some cases.
We recommend you to see a liver specialist, then discuss all available options, as well as their risk/side effects/patients eligibility/pre-operative measures/tips to deal with side effects as well as your health conditions & family hisotry, and then allow the specialist to tailor your treatment for you.
You can use this page to find specialists - Hepatologists in Mumbai. And reach out to me, any specialist working in the relevant field, or clinicspots team if you have any other doubt.
Also let clinicspots know if your city requirements are different, take care.

The liver is swollen due to an infection in the intestine, a severe condition. Symptoms include stomach pain, tiredness, yellow skin (jaundice), and fever. The causes are viruses and bacteria. To help, the doctor prescribed medications for the infections and suggested a special diet to support the liver. Following a doctor's advice carefully is crucial for proper treatment.

Can you please tell me if anything on my ultrasound would indicate liver problems or anything else of concern? EXAMINATION: ABD COMP ULTRASOUND CLINICAL HISTORY: Pancreatitis , chronic. Increased pain right upper quadrant. TECHNIQUE: 2D and color Doppler imaging of the abdomen is performed. COMPARISON STUDY: None FINDINGS: The pancreas is obscured by bowel gas. Proximal aorta is also not well seen. Mid to distal aorta is grossly normal in caliber. The IVC is patent at the level of the liver. The liver measures 15.9 cm in length with coarse echotexture and loss of architecture definition consistent with infiltrative change, nonspecific. No focal geographic abnormality identified. Hepatopetal flow in the portal vein noted. The gallbladder is normally distended with no gallstones, gallbladder wall thickening or pericholecystic fluid. Can not exclude a small amount of dependent sludge. The common bile duct measures less than 2 mm in diameter. The right kidney demonstrates normal corticomedullary differentiation. No obstructive uropathy. The right kidney is 10.6 cm in length with normal color flow. Left kidney is 10.5 cm in length with normal corticomedullary differentiation and no evidence of obstruction. The spleen is fairly homogeneous. IMPRESSION: Limited evaluation of the pancreas and proximal aorta due to bowel gas. No obvious free fluid, correlation needed, consider CT with IV contrast if additional assessment warranted. Subtle gallbladder sludge suspected. No acute cholecystitis.

Based on the ultrasound findings, the report mentions some observations, but it also notes limitations due to bowel gas obscuring the pancreas and proximal aorta. No focal abnormalities or gallbladder issues are identified, although a small amount of dependent sludge cannot be completely ruled out. The kidneys and spleen appear normal.Further evaluation and correlation are recommended, such as a CT scan with IV contrast, if needed. No acute cholecystitis or obvious free fluid is noted. Also make sure to consult your doctor for a comprehensive assessment and interpretation of the results.

My liver is damage and water making in stamch how can be treat
Male | 47
Your stomach may collect water if the liver is not working. That can also cause bloating and discomfort. Signs could include fatigue, poor appetite, or swelling of the belly. Alcohol is just one thing that damages livers – fatty foods and certain medications do too. A gastroenterologist will tell you what to eat but stay off the booze and take drugs as directed.
