Dear Friend.
Welcome to HCM. I am Dr Anshul Varshney. I have read your query in detail. I understand your concern.
Most important here is to find the cause of your jaundice.
It might be a Viral hepatitis. So, it is important to find if it is Hepatitis B or C.
Because that would require proper evaluation and treatment to prevent further damage.
As the treatment would be instituted, your liver would regress to normal shape and size.
Get following:
1. HBsAg
2. Anti HCV Antibody
3. IgM Anti HEV and HAV Antibody
4. Ultrasound abdomen
This is my best advise for you based on available details. If you have any further query please ask me.
Stay Healthy.
