I've had issues with acidity ever since I was 14, and now I'm 22. It gets really bad during my periods and a week before they start. The acidity is so severe I can't even stomach plain rice, and it causes my stomach to bloat. Plus, I get these headaches that make it hard to focus on anything. Could you please advise on what to do about this?

A movable, wobbly lump on the lower left side of your rib cage could be a lipoma (benign fatty tumor), a sebaceous cyst, or a hernia. Less commonly, it could be a sign of a more serious condition, such as a splenic tumor or cyst. Consult a primary care physician or a general surgeon for a proper evaluation and diagnosis.

I recently had some routine blood work, and my liver function test showed that my direct bilirubin is a bit high. My total bilirubin is at 1.0, direct bilirubin is 0.3, and indirect bilirubin is 0.7. The SGPT is 19.8, and SGOT is 22, and all the other liver enzymes came back normal. Should I be worried about my liver? The anxiety is really getting to me.
Based on the lab results, there is no indication of liver failure. The slight elevation in direct bilirubin could be benign and may not be cause for concern. However, if you are experiencing any symptoms or have ongoing concerns, I recommend following up with your doctor for further evaluation and reassurance.

I'm dealing with a grade 2 fatty liver, and I'm currently on medication for it. But I'm really worried because if I stop my meds even for a day, I've noticed the pain comes back. It's on the left side just below my ribs, and it's usually triggered by gas buildup. I'm taking Udiliv 150mg, Eiref, and Fibator. Do you think these meds are right for me? And how long does it usually take to get better with this condition?
It seems like you are on the right track with your current medication for fatty liver grade 2. Udiliv 150mg is a good choice to help improve liver function and Eiref can help with gas build up. Fibator is also commonly used to manage cholesterol levels which can benefit liver health. It is important to continue taking these medications as prescribed by your doctor. As for the time it will take to cure you, it is important to understand that fatty liver disease is a chronic condition that may require long-term management. The goal of treatment is to prevent progression of the disease and manage symptoms. It is best to follow up with your doctor regularly to monitor your condition and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan.
