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.

I have jondies bilirubin count 1.42 any problem???
Male | 36
Bilirubin, a yellow substance from old blood cells, is slightly high at 1.42, which exceeds normal limits. Elevated bilirubin can cause jaundice, leading to yellowing of the skin and eyes. This may indicate liver issues, gallstones, or infections. It's important to consult a hepatologist for further tests to identify the cause and get the right treatment.

Male | 43
Bilirubin is a blood substance from residues of red blood cells. A level of 1 is normal. HbA1c at 6.1 may indicate prediabetes. Symptoms may be there such as fatigue, increased thirst, and urinating too frequently. Adopting a healthy diet, doing physical exercises, and managing time and situations properly can help a person maintain normal blood sugar levels. Get a advice from gastroenterologist for further advice.

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.
Male | 63
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.

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.

Sir I was affected HCV 13 years ago after treatment I was completely cured and my PCR negative. But when ever I go for my medical to abroad they declared me unfit and reject my visa because HCV antibodies are shown in my Blood Elisa . Is there any solution to solve out this problem please guide Can I go for Plasma therapy to remove these antibodies from blood ....?
Male | 29
My suggestion would be to go to a liver specialist and do the necessary tests. Immune memory of HCV infection may persist. Not plasma therapy is advised to eliminate the antibodies to HCV. A hepatologist can refer you to more specialized care or recommend other treatment options.

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.

Male | 26
It is good that your tests for HIV and hepatitis turned out to be negative. This indicates that the virus that causes these diseases was not present in your body at the time of testing. There is also a variation in signs of HIV and hepatitis, with some involving symptoms, such as tiredness, flu-like symptoms, and yellowing of the skin or sclera. If you are still concerned, visit a hepatologist.

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.

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.

• Hepatitis B carriers are persons who carry the hepatitis B virus in their blood but do not experience symptoms. Between 6% and 10% of persons infected with the virus will become carriers and will be able to infect others without knowing it.
• A considerable proportion of chronic hepatitis B (HBV) patients are in the inactive carrier state, which is characterised by normal transaminase levels, limited viral replication, and little liver necroinflammatory activity. After at least one year of frequent monitoring, a diagnosis is made, and lifelong follow-up is required to ensure that this status is maintained.
• In case there is no improvement in HBVDNA levels, consult your expert but do not stop the medication on your own.
• Drugs prescribed such as Tafero (tenofovir) acts by ceasing the production of new viruses, blocks or slows viral proliferation in human cells, and eliminates the infection and also boost the level of CD4 cells (white blood cells that fight infection) in your blood. Entaliv (entecavir) acts by inhibiting the viral replications processes like reverse transcription, DNA replication and transcription.
• Seek the advice of a hepatologist so that your treatment may be adjusted according to your specific needs and preferences.

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.
