Hi Durga,
Thanks for your query.
Usually, patients with jaundice do not tolerate fatty foods, though this does not occur in mild jaundice. I am sure he must have undergone an ultrasound to rule out gall-bladder stones.
If gall-bladder stones have been excluded in a patient with mild jaundice, it is a standard practice to advise a normal, well-balanced diet, preferably a high protein and low fat diet. In addition, daily supplements of vitamins and minerals should also be given to avoid developing their deficiency.
I can't think of any correlation between non-veg item and generalized bony pain. It may therefore, be due to either, impaired functions of the liver; or, sheer coincidence. Liver Function Test and ultrasound reports will give invaluable information to me.
If you find my response helpful and informative, do not forget an “excellent” (5-star rating) to my answer, to ENCOURAGE ALL doctors- engaged in social service- to render sound advice to the FREE queries.
Take care
