Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I had an ultrasound and it showed that I have mild infiltration of the liver. I had 2 car accidents, and took tylenol #3 for pain management for approximately 15 years. I stopped taking tylenol about 9 months ago. I am still taking 1-2 fiorinal per day for headaches and other pain problems. I just received this ultrasound last week, which obviously scared me. If I reduced my pill consumption can mild fatty liver regenerate itself? What other things should I be doing besides eating well and excercising. I am about 125 pounds. Thankyou. Anne
Hi and welcome to HCM. liver can regenerate by itself. there is no possiblity to facilitate this process. you can just avoid risk factors for fatty liver such as alcohol, certain food, adiposity and certain drugs. Fatty liver is still reversible process and you dont have to be worried. Wish you good health. Regards
