I'm really concerned because my sgpt, sgot, and ggt numbers are pretty high and above normal levels. Plus, I noticed my leukocyte count is also elevated. Can you help me understand what this might mean?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Having elevated SGPT, SGOT, and GGT levels along with increased leukocyte count can indicate liver and inflammatory issues. To address this, you can consider taking medications like Ursodeoxycholic acid to support liver function and reduce liver enzyme levels. Additionally, Ibuprofen can help with inflammation and leukocyte count. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

View allI'm really stressed out about my health right now. I've been dealing with hemorrhoids and started taking Himalaya Pilex tablets because I heard they could help. I was taking two tablets, twice a day, but after 14 days, my hemorrhoids got worse instead of better. Plus, I've noticed the nerves in my arms and legs are swollen, I'm hearing noises in my ear, and my TSH levels jumped to 9.2 from normal. I've stopped taking the Pilex tablets, but the swelling and noise in my ear keep getting worse. I'm really worried and looking for advice on how to stop the effects and what I should do next. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Your symptoms may be multifactorial and could involve both a side effect from the Pilex tablets and a potential thyroid issue. Stopping the medication was a good first step, but a thorough evaluation by a doctor is essential to rule out other health concerns and guide you on the next steps for treatment. It's crucial to monitor your thyroid function and address any potential underlying issues. Please get medical attention as soon as possible.

My dad is 50 and has a 16mm gallstone. Can it be treated without surgery or does he need an operation?
A 16mm gallstone may require surgery, especially if it's causing symptoms or complications. However, nonsurgical options are sometimes available, depending on the individual's health and the specific situation. Surgery, like laparoscopic cholecystectomy, is often the preferred treatment for gallstones, but non-surgical methods like medications or shock wave lithotripsy may be considered in certain cases

I've been seeing some light red, almost pink specks of blood on toilet paper for a while now, and it's starting to worry me. What could be causing this?
The presence of blood on toilet paper could be due to various reasons such as hemorrhoids, anal fissures, or gastrointestinal issues. It is important to consult a doctor for a proper diagnosis. In the meantime, you can use over-the-counter medications like Preparation H (contains phenylephrine and shark liver oil) for hemorrhoids or Anovate cream (contains lidocaine and hydrocortisone) for anal fissures. Follow the recommended dosage instructions on the packaging.
