Suggest Treatment For Severe Lower Back Pain And Elevated Liver Enzymes

Hi there, My doc called me that i have elevated liver enzymes. the reason why i went to him is becuase i am very very tired and have a lot of lower back pain. the back pain i think is really because of my slipped discs.... However i wonder if these things are connected. and what do i have to be concerned about.

Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Back pain due to slipped disc would not elevate liver enzymes.
Liver enzymes could be elevated due to infection like Hepatitis or due to toxic damage from intake of alcohol.
You need to consult Physician for proper evaluation of your liver condition and get treated accordingly.
For your slipped disc and back ache, you need to consult Orthopedician for appropriate evaluation and management.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
