Liver inflammation after COVID can be temporary. Keep him hydrated and eat light, low fat food. Doctors may suggest hospital admission just to monitor closely. No need to panic if vitals are stable and liver enzymes improve.

I recently underwent a 61 point detailed health checkup. Most of my results were within the normal range, except for bilirubin in the liver function test, which came out to 2.53 mg/dL (normal range: 0 to 2.0 mg/dL).
