in how many minimum days these values can be controlledd to their normel values.....i ma taking tab udiliv and liv-52 syrup since last one week......can the size of the lever be reduced to normal size.....if yes then in how many minimum days

Dr. Puneet Madan answered : 12 years ago

As you told me that your liver is enlarged by about 3.3cm (which reflects that you have hepatomegaly) but the report must also be displaying nature of increase in size of liver whether liver is fatty,or nodular,or if it is some thing else.

Control depends upon the cause of the disease. Measures like abstinence from alcohol and strict caloric intake are the best measures to control the size of liver. Regarding all other test values, it would show a definitive control within 2 weeks if you follow a proper regime.

Now I would like to ask you a few questions for ruling out the cause of the disease -
1. Are you an alcoholic ?
2. Are you suffering from fever ?
3. Any symptoms of jaundice(yellow eyes,yellow urine) ?
4. Are you loosing weight ?
5. Have you had a blood transfusion ?
6. Have you had an unprotected intercourse with anybody ?
7. Diabetes/obesity history

These questions will help in further investigation of the case.

Hi,

Most probably you are suffering from fatty liver changes. Discontinuing drinking alcohol or cutting way back potentially can allow your liver to return to normal but it will take atleast 4 weeks.

However , many people who suffer from enlarged liver don't drink too much,
and need to look for diet low in what's called high glycaemic index.You should focus your diets around fresh, preferably raw fruits and vegetables, along with home made juices, and to purge your diets of all simple carbohydrates,
including pasta, bread, pastries and desserts with sugar and flour. Start a work out program for atleast 30 minutes per day.

Certain prescribed medications can also gradually damage the liver, if you are taking any drug then speak to your doctor for alternative medication.There isn't a specific drug to treat fatty liver. However, taking a medication to reduce your cholesterol and triglycerides (blood fat) can help correct a fatty liver. Possible options include statins, niacin and natural supplements like omega-3.

Follow thee measures and get usg done after 3-4 weeks.

Hi Puneet, Every time i eat something i have this inflammatory sensation in my throat that's kind of very uncomfortable. I cannot eat spicy food at all these days. Every time i eat junk food like burgers or Pizza or KFC, i end up having problem with my stomach (stomach upset mostly). This problem started since 2010 when i was doing night shifts for my company. There was a time when i did graveyard shift for 3 consecutive weeks. I stopped doing night shifts after i had problems with my stomach. I have a very tough time in finding food of my taste here. I generally prefer salads and bland food. Fruits rich in alkaline level tend to help me a lot. I'm not married yet, so its very difficult for me to find such food everywhere especially at my workplace. I consume alcohol every weekend but next day morning i end up having acidity. So i have to take ENO (fruit salt) to feel better. This has been the case since 3 years now. The only food which suits me is Bland food and fruits (especially the ones rich in alkaline level). I would really appreciate your help with this. Thanks!

Doctor's Answer

Hi, You can have acinil-o along with pantoprazole but pantop will have better effects than acinil-o. Then in 7th point I told about alcohol and not water. Alcohol also causes acidity,specially empty stomach,so you may have alcohol after having some food. In fact you should have plenty of water which I had missed to tell you. Feel free to ask further question. ...

Hi, Yes your child is suffering from congenital hypothyroidism. Although it is mild, he will need to be prescribed with drugs, because hypothyroidism is a very common cause for retarded growth and mental retardation. Rest everything is related to the initial time of birth. That only means that your daughter in law will need to be prescribed with anti d injection before next pregnancy. ...

Hi.. Im 24 yr old male. i have an habit of masturbation. i think in my school 8th class i did masturbation first time. After a year it became a habit for me. iâ€™m very much ashamed of having this habit. After doing masturbation, I hate myself that I cant control it. I think to control doing next time, but finally again I do it. From that time to till now I cant stop this habit. So more or less I masturbate twice a week anyway and in rare cases thrice a week. Accidentally during my college time I watched some programs in tv saying that masturbation causes not able to do sexual intercourse with partner. It causes not able to give a baby after marriage. After seeing that type of programs I got very much afraid of my life. Before two years I did laser eye surgery. Before surgery they did all pre-test for me. Then they said that your nerves are weak so we need to do two more extra test. After that extra test doctor said that we can do the surgery thereâ€™s nothing problem regarding the nerve weakness. I Think may be its family gene problem having nerve weakness. Maybe your grandfather too could had nerve weakness in his life. And now after two years of eye surgery I didnâ€™t face any problems. As doctor said my nerves are weak in my body from my small age.After masturbating all these days I feel my nerves got more weak than before. I donâ€™t know whether it is due to masturbation.But nowadays after masturbation I get head pain back side sometimes and not everytime. Anyway I feel nerves are weak in my body.Iâ€™m afraid very much that I cant do sexual intercourse with my partner if I get married. Iâ€™m afraid that I cant make my wife pregnant after my marriage. Please help me can I make a baby with sexual intercourse after my marriage? Do Iâ€™ve to get any treatment regarding sexual or regarding my nerve weakness or do Iâ€™ve to check whether can I make a baby with good sexual intercourse??

Doctor's Answer

Hi, Fatigue means thakaan or to get tired easily,the symptoms you described are not of nerve weakness.Rest other symptoms are very normal things which many people might face and it is difficult to comment may be there is some thing locally on your back which might be irritating you or may be some kind of allergy. If you really feel that way when you masturbate then get your self checked up to a nearest doctor and he might have to do investigation and various tests to confirm if everything is fi ...
