How To Treat For Elevating Bilirubin Levels?

Hi, im 23 years old. Male. I checked my bilirubin 2years ago result was 1.7 next week 2.7 and after few days it became 3.6, but I did not have any kind of discomfort, fever, or any problem. then had an ayurvedic medicine and I checked the bilirubin then it became 2.1 so I thought it is reducong and it will be normal and I checked after few months it was still 2.1 and I used to check the bilirubin every month it was always between 2.0-2.4 I had normal diet. I did not have any problems like fever or anything. But when I was checking my routine bilirubin total test it became 3.2 and direct 0.8 still im not having any problems.my liver function tests are always normal . I dont drink alcohol or smoke. What will be my problem? What should I do? Should I take anu diet or medicine? Thank you

You are having indirect hyperbilirubinemia cause we need to estabilish,as there are so many causes but few most common we need to rule out is any hemolytic anaemia or any drug induced .If every thins is normal its a Gilberts syndrome ,which most of the people have it but nothing to worry and there is no as such treatment for the same.But only symptomatic
But try to avoid alcohol ,oily food to reduce.
Take hepatitis B vaccination
Physical activity is must.
Hope this information helps you
