Is It Safe To Drink And Excersise When Having Inflammation Of The Liver?
Hello i recently got diagnosed with mono and i have a few questions. I started feeling symptoms a week ago and go diagnosed mid way through the week, and now i feel pretty much 100%. I have no symptoms anymore and do feel great but I am not sure when i can go back to my regular activities. I like to drink and also work out with heavy weights but i was told to avoid these things because of inflammation in my liver, but now that i feel good and the symptoms didn t last long at all, I m wondering if i can drink and work out sooner rather then later. How long until i can do these things again?

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
The impairment of the liver that can occur with this viral infection normally resolves on its own. It can take 2 to 4 weeks for complete resolution to occur in some cases so you may want to hold off the use of alcohol because it would aggravate any liver injury.
In terms of the exercise, you can consider restarting slowly if you are feeling better.
I hope this helps
