Hello,
I read your query and here is my advice.
i see the reports you uploaded.
I don't think that fat stranding is something to worry about. I think he may need to do lipid profile test to check if lipids are high. According to the results he may need low fat diet or medications.
Also increasing physical activity may be needed.
Cbc and kidney profile are normal.
