Dermatologist 's  Response
For your ALT levels, kindly put up your question in the appropriate forum where a physician can answer it. Dermatologists arent the right people to answer that.

For your skin infection, I would appreciate some more details. It is impossible to make out what you are suffering from. But your WBC is definitely on the higher side and requires further evaluation to find out the root cause

I find this answer helpful
