Answered on 21st June '24
The report based on an AST/ALT ratio test result shows a liver enzyme ratio of 1.77 units which is slightly higher than normal and indicates the presence of possible factors e.g. liver damage, drinking alcohol, taking certain drugs. Elevated AST and ALT levels may alert the liver damage. You can ascertain the precise state of your liver by retesting your blood after you get sober and getting the necessary advice from a hepatologist.

Am having back ache, although I have ulcer
Female | 27
Back pain can be triggered by the lifting heavy objects or inappropriate posture. Stress caused by stress or some drugs can lead to the formation of ulcers. The back pain is characterized by a painful feeling and discomfort. On the other hand, ulcers bring about the stomach ache and bloating. You can soothe your back by gentle back exercises and avoiding strong spices or sour acidic foods for the wound of your stomach for bland food. If you continue to feel pain, make an appointment with a gastroenterologist.

Mild stomach pain. Bites after a while. At last I ate chicken and fish in the afternoon
Male | 25
You seem to have food poisoning. Food poisoning symptoms may consist of mild belly upset followed by throwing up or diarrhea after some time. Emissions of undercooked fowl or fish may result in stomach pain only. To cure the situation, get enough rest, drink lots of water, and forgo eating for a couple of hours. If it so happens that the symptoms you have become more severe or remain, it would be better if you visit a gastroenterologist.

Hello doctor can I take esomeprazole whenever I get symptoms on and off for example only for a day
Female | 26
If you are having symptoms like heartburn, digestive laxatives, or acid reflux on and off, it is advisable to avoid esomeprazole as a self-medication. The possible reason for these symptoms is the malfunction of your stomach acid. However, talking with a gastroenterologist will enable you to arrive at the appropriate treatment alternative. Taking esomeprazole without appropriate consultation may not eliminate the actual cause of your symptoms.

Hello I am 13, and I have been suffering from acid reflux for about a month. I have talked to 2 doctors. I have been prescribed pepcid about 2 weeks ago. So my 2 week trial is over. But still I suffer from it. All pepcid was able to do is ease the symptoms a bit. How do I ease my anxiety and get rid of this illness forever?
Male | 13
Acid reflux can be caused by stress and anxiety, as well as dietary and lifestyle choices. You can manage stress and anxiety through relaxation techniques such as deep breathing, yoga, or meditation. If your symptoms persist despite medication and lifestyle changes, your doctor can recommend additional testing or referral to a specialist.

Male | 24
It is clear from what a friend of yours is going through that something's wrong with the blood passing through the digestive tract and coming out of the mouth. ideally, it must be an ulcer in the stomach, inflammation, or even some sort of unwanted microorganisms. Your friend needs to be checked by a gastroenterologist as soon as possible so that the exact cause can be figured out and the right medication be given to them.

I am 42 year old male,having acidity and mild pain on upper side of abdomen,I am using antacid but after 2-3days relief,today it again started.
Male | 42
It sounds like you're experiencing severe acid reflux, which can cause pain in the upper abdomen. This happens when stomach acid backs up into the esophagus, leading to discomfort. To help manage this, try avoiding spicy and fatty foods, eat smaller meals, and remain upright after eating. You might also consider taking antacids or acid reducers. If the pain persists, it's best to consult a gastroenterologist.

The cyst can often bring pain and discomfort. They are due to the blocking of the glands or infections. Although cyst removal is generally quite safe, some risks are part of all surgeries.

Male | 23
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease can progress to fibrosis, which is the scaring of the liver. Healthy weight loss through diet and exercise can play a key role in the liver's health. The liver is capable of some self-repair, but the damage from serious scarring is probably not going to be reversed completely. Following your doctor's advice, taking your medication, and lifestyle changes to support your liver health are essential.

You may have a condition called food allergies. It is a case of the body reacting overly to some food items. Symptoms can be a painful stomach rash and a soft stool. Keeping a food diary is the best way to identify the specific food is causing the reaction. The food to be avoided is the one you already know as the trigger. The result of this is symptom disappearance and no more loss of mass.

Im wondering if Ulcerative Colitis can affect a man's sexual ability causing ED. Either that or is it possible for UC to cause low testosterone? Is this possible without me taking any medications?
Male | 28
A situation that inflames the colon, ulcerative colitis, can result in symptoms such as abdominal pain, diarrhea, and fatigue. Even though inflammation and stress brought on by UC do not cause directly erectile dysfunction (ED) or low testosterone; they can have an impact on sexual health. The best way forward is to treat UC effectively while also finding ways of reducing stress.
