Answered on 23rd May '24

There's no definitive cure for liver cirrhosis. It is a condition where healthy liver tissue is replaced by scar tissue, and this damage is irreversible. Stem cell therapy is still under research and clinical trials, but it is not yet considered a standard treatment for liver cirrhosis.

What amount of s.g.p.t value to normal liver

Male | 18

When we assess S.L.T. the S.G.P.T level is being analyzed. A normal S.G.P.T level for a healthy liver is below 40 units per liter. Higher levels of the liver could indicate that it is not healthy. Signs like weakness, jaundice, or the yellowing of the skin, are some of the symptoms. Drinking too much alcohol or having a fatty liver are among the causes. To get better, drink less of alcohol and eat a diet full of vegetables.

Hai i am male 49 years, from few months my platelets count reduced up to 27000. Gastro dr. do sonography and endoscopy, and find compensated cirrhosis of liver. i want to Know what is the long term effect and what kind of diet should i take. Thanks

Male | 48

If your doctor has suggested that you are suffering from compensated cirrhosis, this means the patient is in the early stage of cirrhosis. such patients need to be evaluated thoroughly for the cause of cirrhosis. Also these patients need to be under regular follow up with liver specialists to diagnose and treat complications when and where these complications arise. Also these patients need to be under strict liver-related diet control. Diet is generally modified and custom made for each and every patient. Hope this clears your doubt and reach out if you do have unresolved queries!

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.

I am suffering from chronic liver disease and had ascites last month but now better after treatment. At Jan month My albumin 2.3, AST 102 & ALT 92 level is reduced albumin 2.7, AST 88 IU/L & ALT 52 IU/L. My USG report taken during ascites shows DCLD & liver reduced in size, measures 10.4cm & coarse parenchymal echo texture with surface irregularity noted.portal vein indistinct. Following a healthy diet. Kindly advise if my liver had chances to regenerate or symtoms goes worse. Any treatment to cure.

Female | 68

It is possible for the liver to regenerate, especially if the damage to the liver is not too severe. However, this is not always the case, and the extent to which the liver can regenerate may depend on the underlying cause of the liver damage. 

There are several treatments that may be helpful in managing chronic liver disease. These may include medications to control symptoms and complications, such as ascites, and lifestyle changes, such as following a healthy diet and avoiding alcohol. In some cases, a liver transplant may be necessary if the liver damage is severe and not reversible. 

You must follow your doctor's recommendations for treatment and to continue to monitor your liver function tests and other symptoms closely. It is also important to avoid activities that could further damage your liver, such as drinking alcohol and taking certain medications that may be harmful to the liver.

Sir, there was pus in my liver, then I got the treatment done in LIBS hospital and they removed the pus through operation, then I got cured but there is pain in my right shoulder blade and on the opposite chest side too, I went through the operation. When I asked the doctor after two months, he said that it might be due to gas, but I still have pain in the shoulder blade.

Male | 29

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.

liver problem please can u guide me

Male | 18

If the liver is not functioning properly, the person may feel fatigued, become jaundiced, see yellow skin and eyes, and experience pain on the right side. Liver disease can be the result of virus attacks, overconsumption of alcohol, or obesity that leads to metabolic disorders. Take care of your liver and you will be forced to follow healthy eating habits, do regular workouts, and limit your alcohol consumption.

I am 73 years male I am suffering from Parkinson's disease since last 9 years and treatment is going on. Today's USG shows Fatty changes of liver. Portal vein & CBD are mildly prominent. Now I want your suggestion in this regard.

Male | 73

You have been through the Parkinson's disease process wherein a certain organization inside your body controls such functions as movement and balance. The ultrasound results indicate that you have experienced a harmless fatty liver change which happens due to various reasons like being overweight or having diabetes. Healthy lifestyle choices such as eating a balanced diet and exercising regularly can help reduce this.

Male | 21

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

In my liver test SGPT is 42 and GAMMA GT is 57 more than normal range

Female | 35

Since your SGPT and Gamma GT levels showed higher values, your liver test result is fine, but slightly elevated. It may be a sign of the disease process that is manifesting itself in the form of liver damage or inflammation. Consult with a hepatologist is important. They can propose the right therapeutic methods which suits your situation best.

My father has jaundice for 1 month. Bilirubin level 14. Few days ago father was given 5 blood.. But now hemoglobin levels is 6. Why the hemoglobin decreasing? What is the risk?

Male | 73

The decrease in hemoglobin could be due to continued blood loss, reduced red blood cell production, or hemolysis. Low hemoglobin levels can lead to fatigue, weakness, and other health risks. So consult his doctor soon for proper treatment.
