I've been having this pain on the right side below my chest for the last two days, especially when I breathe and yawn. I've also been burping all day. This started after I was fasting on Saturday and had liquid fasting on Monday. I did take a gas tablet yesterday, but the pain is still there today when I woke up. I can't visit a hospital right now because of the lockdown and the situation outside. Do you think this could just be gas pain?

I've recently been told I have grade 1 fatty liver, and I used to have irritable bowel syndrome. I've been on antibiotics for a liver infection for a few days. I'm experiencing pain in my liver area from the infection, but there's also a constant pain in my abdomen, especially when I press on it, and sometimes even without pressing. This has been going on for months. What could be causing this pain? I had an ultrasound, and it only showed the liver problem. I really want to understand what's going on so it can be treated. Can you help?

The persistent abdominal pain, despite antibiotics for liver infection, could be related to your pre-existing irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), as fatty liver disease and IBS often co-exist; other possible causes may include inflammation, scarring, or adhesions from past liver or abdominal issues; consider consulting a gastroenterologist to investigate further and develop a comprehensive treatment plan addressing both your fatty liver and IBS symptoms.

I'm a bit concerned about my SGPT levels. Currently, it's at 44 UL. Is this within the normal range, or should I be worried about it being too high? I'd really appreciate some guidance on this.

Your SGPT level of 44 UL is slightly above the typical normal range, which is usually around 756 UL. However, it is still within a generally acceptable limit, but if you're experiencing any symptoms or concerns, its best to discuss this with your doctor for further evaluation.

Rectal mucus discharge without stool, along with existing gastrointestinal issues, could be related to conditions like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), hemorrhoids, or even certain infections.
