I'm experiencing these random single hiccups scattered throughout the daylike just one hiccup at a time but occurring maybe 10 or 15 times daily. They're quiet too. I've noticed them every day for the past three weeks. I know I have acid reflux and anxiety, but aside from that, I'm a healthy and active 23-year-old female. I'm really curious if having just one hiccup multiple times a day is considered persistent. Can you shed some light on this?

Single, random hiccups throughout the day arent typically classified as persistent hiccups, which usually last over 48 hours continuously. However, since theyve been ongoing daily for weeks, its worth discussing with a doctor, especially given your acid reflux and anxiety, as these could be contributing factors.

I'm really worried about my dad, he's 54 and has been dealing with a fatty liver and jaundice for about a month now. I noticed that his SGOT level is 65. Do you think he can safely take Ecosprin tablets with these conditions? I'm just trying to figure out what's best for him.
Your father should not take Ecosprin tablet as it can worsen his liver condition. Instead, he can take Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) at a dosage of 300mg to help improve his liver function and reduce the symptoms of jaundice. Additionally, he can take Vitamin E supplements to support his liver health. It is important for him to follow up with his doctor regularly for monitoring and management of his fatty liver disease.

My 63-year-old mom has small cystic lesions in the caudate lobe of her liver. Do these always require surgery or can they be treated with medication? I'm worried about the next steps for her.
Small liver cysts, especially in the caudate lobe, are often asymptomatic and don't require treatment. They are typically benign, and only large or symptomatic cysts may need intervention. Surgery is not usually needed for small, simple cysts.
