Hello,

Since you have history of elevated enzyme levels & now are experiencing pain in the right side under the rib cage, you are suggested to get clinically examined by a GP & get CBC, Urinalysis, Liver function tests & Imaging tests done. Liver biopsy if needed. Other medical conditions that can cause similar symptoms are Choleycystitis, broken/bruised ribs, Costochondritis, etc.

Your treatment will depend on the severity of the symptoms & the reports of the tests attained. You can take liver tonics, avoid spicy oily food, take boiled home made nutritious food. Avoid alcohol or addictions if any. Take small amount of semi solid food that is easily digestible, avoid protein & red meat for a couple of days. Take boiled veggies & fruits. Berries & grapes.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Nupur K, General & Family Physician
