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 allI'm a bit worried because my SGPT level is 49. What could be causing this, and is it something I should be concerned about? Also, what are some ways to bring it down naturally?
Elevated ALT (SGPT) levels, like your 49 reading, can be caused by various factors, including fatty liver, alcohol consumption, medication side effects, viral hepatitis, and liver damage from toxins or medications, and remedies to lower ALT levels include lifestyle changes like weight loss, exercise, and a balanced diet, as well as avoiding alcohol and hepatotoxic substances, managing underlying conditions like diabetes and hypertension, and considering supplements like vitamin E and omega-3 fatty acids under medical guidance.

I've been dealing with pancreatitis and the stress from my personal life is really getting to me. I'm wondering if there's any way I can still have a drink now and then?
Alcohol consumption should be avoided completely if you have pancreatitis, as it can worsen the condition and increase the risk of complications. It is important to prioritize your health and well-being by abstaining from alcohol. Instead, focus on managing stress through healthy coping mechanisms and seeking support from healthcare professionals or counselors.

I've been dealing with an anal fissure for three years now and have been taking Lacsyp and some other antibiotics, though I forgot the name. Sometimes it eases up, but now I'm dealing with hard bowels, pain, and discomfort again. Today, I noticed some pus-like material on my rectum while bathing. Plus, I'm also having trouble with gas. What do you think might be going on, and is there something more I should be doing to get relief or prevent this from getting worse?
