I have white patches on both sides of my lips. It is not painful, but it does not look good. As suggested by a dermatologist, I have done an LFT test. Can you tell me if my LFT report is normal or if something is wrong?

White patches near lips could be vitiligo, fungal infection, or friction. If LFT is normal, liver is not involved. Apply prescribed creams consistently. Consult dermatologist if patches spread. Maintain oral hygiene and hydration.

Hi, one of my LFT tests shows SGOT as 70 with a reference range of 15 to 37 and SGPT as 200 with a reference range of 16 to 63. Another lab test shows SGOT as 83 with a normal range of 0 to 40 and SGPT as 176 with a normal range of 0 to 36. Can someone please help me understand which values are worse? Is the second lab test worse than the first? Which values are higher?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I have been noticing a strong smell in my urine, latrine, and certain foods, especially fish and chicken for the past 2 months. I do not think this is psychological. I also have chronic digestion issues. I had blood tests a few months ago and kidney function was normal, but SGOT and SGPT levels were elevated. My fasting blood sugar was around 102 mg/dL, and my cholesterol was high at 240 mg/dL. My weight is 63 kg, height 5 ft 7 in, and I am 24 years old.
