Hi,I am Dr. Radhakrishna (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have been having a pain in my right upper abdomin for the past two months that is progressively getting worse. I work in a lab and had a cbc done with an elevated neutophil count, AST and ALT. Should I be concerned about possible liver issues. I do not have any jaundice.
Hi! Good evening. i am Dr Shareef answering your query.
The investigation reports shows the cause to be of infective origin with an elevated neutrophil count. If I were your doctor, after a detailed physical examination, I would advise you for an ultrasound whole abdomen and a CT if need be for proper evaluation of the intra-abdominal viscera. Further management would depend on the reports of the investigations and examination findings. Till then, I would advise you for a proton pump inhibitor, bland diet, and an anti spasmodic if the pain is unbearable.
I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts. Thanks for choosing health care magic to clear doubts on your health problems. Wishing you an early recovery. Dr Shareef.
