Answered on 24th Nov '24
A positive test result for the presence of HBsAg at 2.87 or above indicates potential infection with Hepatitis B virus. Symptoms may include fatigue, jaundice (yellowing skin/eyes), and abdominal pain. The disease is spread through contact with infected blood or other body fluids so if you think you may have been at risk it's best to get screened as soon as possible.

Hi what does it mean if you have lost immunity to hip b ?
Female | 33
If you have lost immunity to hepatitis B, it means that your body is no longer protected against the hepatitis B virus. Immunity to HBV is typically acquired through vaccination or prior infection.

I am samiullah 4y old male I have been having fever for last 3 months. I have taken many medicines like colistin, tigecline but I am not getting any relief. I have some cough and weakness. I have done many tests but all came back negative but my liver is swollen. HB-7.2 SGOT-135 SGOT-78 SERUM BILROBIN 3.9 XINE XPERT negative Blood culture - no growth CSF- normal
Male | 4
The complaints you have of long-lasting fever, cough, weakness, and swollen liver make me worried. The lab results hint that your hemoglobin is low, and liver enzyme levels are elevated. This could be an indication of some infection or inflammation in your body. Further investigations and a thorough evaluation by a hepatologist are needed to find out the exact cause and provide you with the right treatment.

liver syorisis for one years
Female | 56
Liver cirrhosis is where scar tissue builds up in the liver. Longstanding issues like heavy drinking or viral hepatitis cause this. Some signs are tiredness, swollen legs, and yellow skin. Doctors treat cirrhosis by controlling underlying problems. They may prevent alcohol use and prescribe drugs for symptoms. Eating well and exercising also help manage cirrhosis.

Pricked with a needle after the patient. She was tested for antibodies to hepatitis C and accidentally tested for antibodies to the hepatitis B virus surface antigen after 4 months (result 2.38, at a rate of 10 IU/ ml of blood).1. Can I calm down a little bit about hepatitis B? 2. Can I do an express hepatitis test?3.If blood gets on the immediate skin, is this exactly a risk for infection?
Female | 30
Your hepatitis B virus surface antigen result is 2.38, which is below the normal threshold of 10 IU/ml, indicating you're likely not infected. So, you don't need to worry much about hepatitis B. If you want further reassurance, you can take a quick express test for fast results. The risk of infection from blood on your skin depends on factors like the amount of blood, any existing cuts, and how quickly you clean it off. Usually, brief contact with blood on the skin doesn't pose a high risk of hepatitis B infection. Overall, your levels are normal, so you can relax. But if you're still concerned, an express test can provide peace of mind.

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.

Male | 32
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.

I would suggest refraining from nonvegetarian foods until your liver has 100% recovered from the rupture. While recovering, it is also important to eat a balanced and healthy diet that will help in the liver’s recovery. Talk to your doctor for guidelines

When you have liver cirrhosis does your belly get hard and tight and uncomfortable can't eat everything taste nasty got a bad knee that looks a bad infection like someone ate his knee off bad...
Male | 56
In advanced stages of liver cirrhosis, the abdomen can become distended and feel firm or tight due to fluid accumulation (ascites). This can cause discomfort and difficulty eating. Whereas changes in taste perception and a knee infection are not directly related to liver cirrhosis and would require separate evaluation

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.

Male | 30
• Fatty liver disease is a condition caused by fat buildup in the liver (i.e., when fat percentage exceeds 5 - 10% of your liver's weight), which can be caused by alcohol intake and/or a high fat diet. Individuals who are obese/overweight, have poor glycemic control/insulin resistance, have metabolic syndrome, and are taking specific drugs such as amiodarone, diltiazem, tamoxifen, or steroids are at risk of developing fatty liver.
• In some situations, it is thought to be symptomless, but in others, it can cause substantial liver damage. The good news is that it is frequently avoidable or reversible with lifestyle modifications.
• It progresses through 3 stages which include Steatohepatitis (swelling and damage of liver tissue), Fibrosis (scar tissue formation where your liver is damaged) and Cirrhosis (extensive scar tissue replacement with healthy tissue). Cirrhosis can lead to liver failure or cancer.
• Laboratory investigations consists of Liver functions tests such as AST, ALT, ALP and GGT; Total Albumin and Bilirubin, CBC, Test for viral infection, Fasting Blood Glucose, HbA1c and Lipid profile.
• Imaging procedures such as Ultrasound, CT /MRI, Elastography (for measuring stiffness of liver) and Magnetic resonance elastography and Biopsy (for ruling out any cancerous growth and for signs or any inflammation and scarring).
• If a patient has a fatty liver, he or she should be checked for the entire metabolic syndrome, which includes diabetes, hypertension, cholesterol, and thyroid issues.
• The best way to treat fatty liver is with making some lifestyle changes which can significantly improve your health which includes – Avoiding alcohol and High fat diet, Losing weight, taking medications for controlling glucose and fat(Triglyceride and Cholesterol) levels and Vitamin E with Thiazolidinediones in specific instances.
• Currently, no drug treatment is approved for management of fatty liver disease.
In order to prevent further progression of disease one can:
Maintain a healthy weight by consuming food less/minimal in in its fat percentage.
Follow a Mediterranean diet which is high in vegetables, fruits and good fats.
Exercise regularly for 45 minutes where in you can include combination of cycling with walking, cardio, CrossFit and yoga with meditation.
Restrict alcohol consumption
Consult a hepatologist near you for further evaluation and treatment and your dietician for advice on fat loss.
