Brief Answer:
Liver enzymews are only borderline raised.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
The frequency of urination that you have can be due to cystitis or a mild bladder infection. A urine culture and cystoscopy will help in diagnosis.
The ligament injury in the ankle needs proper rest for recovery. You also need an MRI scan to detect the extent of injury as only mild partial tears heal on conservative treatment. For larger tears, surgical repair may be needed.
The liver enzymes are only marginally raised. Such a rise is not worrisome and is likely to be due to fatty liver. Losing some weight and avoiding fatty foods will help.
It is best to take mild pain killers along with Same for symptomatic relief.
The pain killers, hot fomentation, muscle relaxants and regular physiotherapy will help in reducing fibromyalgia pain.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
