I'm experiencing a tight feeling in my stomach and a lot of gas. I don't really want to eat or drink water, and I'm feeling pretty weak because of it. Could you recommend any tablets for better bowel movements? I'm not sure what to do.

View allI'm really worried about this swelling and pain I've been having in my lower rib cage for about a month now. It's pretty uncomfortable and sometimes I even feel a burning sensation. Occasionally, the pain seems to spread to my stomach. I've had some blood tests and an ultrasound, but they didn't show anything abnormal. Could you please help me understand what's going on?
It sounds like the pain in your lower rib cage could be related to muscle strain, costochondritis (inflammation of the rib cartilage), or digestive issues like acid reflux. Since your tests were normal, it might be worth monitoring your posture, stress levels, and diet, and if the pain persists, consulting a doctor for further evaluation.

I've just had some liver function tests, and my bilirubin levels came back at 2.9. Is this something to be worried about? Im not seeing any yellowing in my eyes or skin, and my urine doesnt seem too dark either. Who should I talk to for this? Any advice?

I've been dealing with a fatty liver, and just a couple of months ago, my SGPT levels were at 96. Now, thanks to medication, they've dropped to 63. But now I'm concerned because my direct bilirubin has gone up to 0.6, whereas it was normal before. Should I be worried about this change in bilirubin, and does it mean anything serious about my liver condition or overall health?
Your SGPT levels have improved with medication, but your direct bilirubin has increased. This could indicate ongoing liver inflammation or damage. I recommend you continue with your current medication and also consider adding Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) to help improve liver function and reduce bilirubin levels. Make sure to follow up with your doctor for monitoring and further guidance.
