Hepatitis B is a virus that mainly affects the liver. Tiredness, jaundice (yellow skin), and stomach pain are some possible causes. Your fiancée has been treated and it is generally safe to have sex, but it is important to use protection such as condoms to minimize the risk of spreading the virus.

My brother has liver cirrhosis. Can ge be cured if he undergo stem cell therapy?

Male | 54

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.

You could be reacting to an overdose of paracetamol. Yellow in the whites of your eyes can be a sign of liver problems. This can be if you take paracetamol in excess. It is crucial to get medical assistance immediately. The doctor can examine your liver and give treatment if necessary.

Sir can fibrosis at F3 can never reversed to F0 Liver

Male | 23

Fibrosis stage F3 refers to some serious scarring in your liver which is not good. The same thing can come from illnesses such as hepatitis or drinking too much. The good news is with the right treatment the fibrosis can improve and even revert to a healthier stage like F0. Eating a healthy diet, avoiding alcohol, and taking prescribed medications can all help in this process.

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.

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.

Sir/ma'am I did a cbt,lft,kft test My hb-16 (13-17) Rbc-5.6(4.5-5.5) Pcv-50.3%(40-50) Sgpt-72(45) Sgot-38.5(35) Ggt-83(55) Uric acid-8.8(7) It is elevated..I am worried about the results

Male | 22

Some of your test results are unusually high. This may also be linked to the liver or the kidneys performing under the best conditions. High SGPT, SGOT, and GGT levels are potentially associated with liver diseases, while high uric acid levels could be a symptom of kidney disorders. You may not notice any symptoms, but it would be great to visit a physician to know the cause and receive the right treatment.

Cld patient and week liver lose of sense

Male | 56

Such symptoms may include fatigue, jaundice (yellowing of skin), and generalized malaise. An affected liver can be triggered by different factors such as the intake of medications, alcohol, and certain medications. To enhance the performance of your liver, take in a balanced diet, drink enough water, and abstain from taking alcohol. However, it is strongly recommended that you talk to a healthcare professional who will give you personal advice and possibly conduct necessary tests.

I'm taking liver syrup from home. I'm black jaundice

Male | 34

Black jaundice, also known as hepatitis E, can make your skin and eyes turn yellow. It can lead to weariness, fever, and haul of the belly. This is due to the liver getting sick from a particular virus. To get better, sleep a lot, drink only clean water, and consume proper foods. Don't use alcohol and don't eat fatty foods. Your body will be able to destroy the virus in a few weeks.

The doctors were telling that no chances of survival now & advised family to allow to put me on ventilator but my son hesitated & in same condition, he got me Apollo Hospital in mid night. I think Max hospital only seen their monotary benefits & recovered around 14.00 lacs for treatment through Insurance co. Then slowly slowly, I got recovery & after a weak, I got recovery . Sir, I am having no pain in and around Abdomen area, no swelling anywhere. For checking Ascites, doctors asked me to take half tablets of Lessilactone. Only feeling heavy Weekness, loss of stamina.

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

Sir there is too much urine in jaundice or fatty liver

Male | 18

If your body is getting rid of the excess substances, jaundice or liver disease is likely the reason for the excess urine. Symptoms can be characterized by yellow-colored skin, pain in the stomach, and fatigue. The causes may be infections or dangerous lifestyles like smoking and drinking. To aid the body, hydrate yourself with water and eat a balanced diet.
