Is It Normal To Have Mild Abdominal Pain After Jaundice Recovery?
Hi,
I am a 29 year old man and have been suffering from jaundice over the last 12 days. My bilirubin (6 earlier - now 3), SGOT & SGPT (both were in approx 1000 & now have come down to 300). So i see some sign of recovery in the reports. Though, after meals a I develop gas in my stomach and this remains till I sleep in the night. My body has been mildly itchy.Also after I saw my recovery reports, there has been a mild pain in my right lower abdomen. Is this normal? I need to travel abroad after a fortnight. Please suggest.

Hi.
Thanks for your query.
This is usually not normal to have a pain in abdomen in the recovery phase of jaundice particularly when you are improving.
Due to deranged function of the gastro-inetstinal system it is possible that one gets this gas like symptoms.
This indicates the need to have soft bland diet which is coked at home.
Continue the medicines, change over to diet that does not contain something which increases gases
Take bed rest for an early recovery.
Then you may travel abroad.
Check the liver function every 4 th day to see the progress.
