Thank you for choosing HCM

I have gone through the question and feel that you have a regular headache. The ALT level is not high enough for you to have an actual disease. ALT is usually raised in Viral hepatitis but since it is only 2 points higher, I think this is unlikely.

There is however a predisposition to you having damage to the liver. I recommend that you try the following to help you. But please do not take Tablet Paracetamol or any NSAID as it can injure your liver.

Here is what you can do:
Drink lots of water
Inhale steam mixed with eucalyptus oil to help clear the nasal passages
Sleep well and at least 8 hours a day
Eat meals at regular times

This should help you with recovery. Follow-up after 5 days. Wishing you a speedy recovery. All the best.

Hope this helps you
