I am a COVID recovered patient (recovered about one month ago). I recently received my liver function test results, which show that AST/SGOT is 44 and ALT/SGPT is 84, both slightly above the normal range. Could you please advise if this is something I should be concerned about? Is it possibly related to the recent COVID 19 infection, or should I undergo further tests or treatment?

Mild elevation in liver enzymes can happen post COVID. Stay hydrated, avoid alcohol or fatty food, and recheck after 2 to 3 weeks.

Sir/maam, I had a few tests conducted as a routine annual checkup by my company. My CBC is fine, KFT is fine, but a few liver readings are very poor. Kindly guide me regarding this. I have attached my report. My weight is 100 kg, height 6 feet, HbA1c 5.5, blood pressure 122/82, pulse 75, and oxygen 99.
