Had Abdomen Pain, Medical Report Showed Fatty Liver And Hernia. Suggest Treatment?
My mom aged 55 recently went to a medical checkup because of pain in abdomen.
Medical report says
"Fatty liver, Hernia above the umblicus noted.
Gallbladder, spleen, pancreas, both kidneys and urinary bladder are normal"
Kindly advise what treatment is appropriate for her? Does she need to undergo surgery?
If so, what would be the cost for the same?

Hi and welcome to HCM .Thanks for the query.
she needs surgery when and if hernia becomes painful,strangulated or incarcerated. At this point I dont think she needs surgey. Fatty liver should be treated by dieatyr changes. she should avoid alcohol and eat less fatty food. control blood sugar and lipids and lose weight if overweight.
Wish you good health. Regards
