Hi,
The ultrasound report is not mentioned here. Your SGOT is normal while SGPT/ALT is marginally high. If no symptoms, this need no treatment, provided it return back to normal after 2 weeks. Otherwise, we can evaluate further. Till then, avoid paracetamol and alcohol.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Muhammed Aslam T. K., Pediatrician
