My partner is showing early signs of jaundice and we're already working on treatment and prevention. I'm just wondering, is it safe for us to have sex while they're going through this?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Yes, it is generally safe to have sex during jaundice as long as both partners are comfortable. However, it is important to ensure that the underlying cause of jaundice has been treated and that there are no other complications present. It is always best to consult with a healthcare provider for personalized advice.

View allIs it common to find a hard, painful lump in the analrectal region if someone has hemorrhoids? My girlfriend, who is 38, has this and she's going for a colonoscopy on Tuesday. How long does it usually take for this kind of lump to go away?
A hard, painful lump in the analrectal area can be a common symptom of external hemorrhoids, and it's usually a sign of a blood clot or thrombosis, which can be painful, but typically resolves on its own within 7-10 days, however, since your girlfriend is undergoing a colonoscopy, it's essential to discuss this symptom with her surgeon to rule out other possible causes and determine the best course of treatment.

I'm thinking about joining the Reshape Nation program to help with my weight loss, but I've heard that it might not be suitable if you have a fatty liver issue. They've also suggested using some Amway products, like Nutrilite supplements. I'm a bit concerned and wonder if it's a safe choice for me to proceed. Could you provide some guidance on whether it's advisable for someone in my situation?

I'm a 29-year-old guy, and I've been diagnosed with a grade 3 fatty liver. I don't have diabetes and just drink occasionally. I recently had a fibroscan that showed no fibrosis, but my SGOT is 70, SGPT is 45. My total bilirubin level is 1.2, with direct bilirubin at 0.8, and my uric acid is 7.9. Should I be worried about these numbers, and what can I do to improve my liver health?
