Hello
I understand your concern.

From the description you gave,it seems you have acute viral hepatitis.It can also be caused by certain medications/chemicals,but if you donot have any such history of exposure,it is probably of infectious origin caused by intake of infected food or water.

If I were your treating doctor,I would recommend,
-Get investigations like liver function tests,urinanalysis ,antibodies for hepA and hepE done
-Antipyretic like tab paracetamol thrice a day for 3-5 days for fever.
-Antacids for nausea.Maintain adequate hydration.
-Small frequent meals to cover up decreased appetite.Eat soft semi solid well cooked diet which are easily digestable.Avoid high fat content and fried food,avoid alcohol intake.
-Multi vitamin supplementation can be considered.
-Adequate bed rest advised.

Hope this information helps.
Wish you good health.
