Recently diagnosed with Non-Alcohol Fatty Liver disease and Cubital Tunnel Syndrome. While dealing with a new brace (which I love) and pressure sores. How can I do better?

For liver avoid bananas and tomatoes. Drink lots of water.

Hi Temi. I am having difficulty keeping this reply intact to send,fourth try now!
NAFL seldom has symptoms.Tummy pain,weakness and feeling tired may be evident.There are no meds for it.Things that increase risk are overweight,diabetes,high >blood pressure,high cholesterol.So ways to cure it are,lose weight,healthy diet,more activity,control diabetes,lower cholesterol and protect your liver.All of which are very easy!lol.
Lower levels of vits B12,and B9 as well as potassium are implicated too.
Treatment for cubital tunnel are the same.Painkillers,rest affected elbow and a physical support could help.Surgery is a last resort.Both conditions may get better on their own

I’m going to wound care higher than a podoatrist. So far it’s regressed twice in six weeks. I don’t know what else to do. They want me bedridden which can’t happen since I need to use the facilities. Ugh! Hugs 🤗

Check at your local pharmacy, I cannot remember the name but there is a kind of plaster you can use to avoid the sores. We used it on our feet while flamenco dancing without socks. It worked great.
