Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thank you for choosing HealthcareMagic for your query.
I've gone through your attachements
I am a Gastroenterologist and would be addressing your concerns.
Firstly its not palmar erythema.Secondly these changes appear in high grade of liver problems.
Fatty liver has many grades-
When the echogenicity is just increased, it is grade I-Very common in young adults.Usually no symptoms are there.Life style changes are advocated..
when the echogenic liver obscures the echogenic walls of portal vein branches, it is grade II-Again patient is clinically normal apart from life style modification some potent liver rejenuvators are advocated.
when the echogenic liver obscures the diaphragmatic outline, it is grade III fatty infiltration. This is the phase when most symptoms like palmar erthema tremors edema etc appears.
Though you have not mentioned your grade yet i think you are either in grade 1 or 2.
So unless you have any symptom you can lead a normal life.
Though not asked yet some life style changes are-
-Whole grains are very beneficial to consume.These can be in the form of XXXXXXX whole wheat bread or cereal, brown rice, whole grain pasta,grains such as whole oats, wild rice, rye, oatmeal and corn are also beneficial and can be taken if suits your fooding pattern.
-Fruits and vegetables should be a significant part of any diet to help in recovering from a liver disease. They are full of essential nutrients and are easy to digest.When on recovery diet follow a high carbohydrate diet,Fat contents of diet should be very low.However Olive oil, canola oil and flaxseed oil are all healthy fats that are recommended.
-Healthy proteins in the form of low-fat milk and dairy products along with lean meats, beans, eggs and soy products can also be a part of a healthy liver diet.
-Take a liver rejunvator like Sylimarin (Milk of thistle) in your regimen daily.
Now lets move on to

As already told earlier mild fatty liver is not a disease its just a aeging process and is fully reversible bh diet control and medications.
Fats are basically lipids and all lipid lowering drugs cause fat to move from liver to periphery forvutilisation hence yes drugs have a role in it.

Hey,
The recommended safe intake for men is no more than three units of alcohol a day, or 21 units per week. Units of alcohol should not be confused with number of drinks, as many common drinks count as more than one unit but as you already had fatty liver disease make it half
One unit of alcohol is the equivalent to:
Half a pint of beer containing (3-4 percent alcohol by volume)
A small measure of spirit containing (40 percent alcohol by volume)
One and a half units of alcohol is equivalent to:
A small glass of wine (12 percent alcohol by volume)
a standard, single shot-sized measure of spirits (40 percent alcohol by volume).
Consuming moderate amount occassionly wont cause any problem.
complete abstaince is the best however if you follow as advised above you would be safe.
