Question 1

I was recently diagnosed with mild jaundice and fatty liver, and my doctor suggested seeing a dietician. They also found gallstones but said to hold off on surgery until my liver improves. Should I be worried about delaying the gallstone surgery, and what kind of diet changes would help my liver recover faster?

Accepted Answer

for fatty liver start orange juice with olive oil and garlic and ginger

Question 2

I'm really concerned because I've been dealing with chronic constipation and gastritis for the last 25 years. It's been such a long time, and I'm not sure what to do about it. I've noticed that my weight is 52 kgs, and I'm around 5 feet 6 inches tall. Is there something I might be missing or should be asking about? What steps can I take to improve my condition?

Accepted Answer

For chronic constipation, you can try taking Metamucil (psyllium) 1 tablespoon mixed with water once or twice daily can help regulate bowel movements. For gastritis, you can take Prilosec (omeprazole) 20mg once daily before breakfast for 4-8 weeks to reduce stomach acid production and alleviate symptoms. It is also important to avoid spicy, acidic, and fatty foods that can trigger gastritis flare-ups.

Question 3

I've been dealing with some breathing issues and chest tightness over the past couple of weeks, especially after eating. It's like I need to yawn just to feel like I get a full breath sometimes, and there's also a little bit of chest pain here and there. My thyroid's fine, and I've never had asthma. Two years ago, I had the same kind of problems and saw a doctor who thought it was anxiety and gastritis. He gave me antacids, and that cleared it up back then. Could this really just be the same thing happening again? Any advice would be great.

Accepted Answer

according to your symptoms its because of gastritis only, kindly take tablet pantoprazole once a day for 5 days

I'm having a really hard time breathing because of this gas and my chest feels really heavy. I'm pretty sure it's because I haven't been eating and sleeping well, and now I've got this terrible gastric problem. Can you help me figure out how to ease this?

Solution is with you maintain healthy lifestyle and consume balanced diet,when you feel heavy you can take antacid for instant relief
