Hi XXXXXX,
Thanks for posting your query,

You have suffered Viral Hepatitis A in March and now almost recovered from illness.

Hepatitis A is caused by hepatitis A virus (HAV), a picornavirus transmitted by the fecal-oral route often associated with ingestion of contaminated food.

You are already on road to recovery as your liver functions have improved; you should take normal diet and can start light activity like walking and routine activity. Please keep yourself well hydrated.

Please go slow before going for sports like badminton and football and after a week or so and recheck liver function by that time serum bilirubin and SGPT will return back to normal.

Once you feel better with activity than you can increase it gradually and also take care of your diet which should provide enough calories and essential nutrients.

Hope this information is helpful to you, if you have any further query please ask, I will be happy to help.

Regards
Dr. Akhilesh Dubey M.D.
