Q: alt levels on blood work from the er show 5 with a less than symbol (this app wont let me put the actual symbol). is it concerning for a 21 yr old female?

: The stated level of less than 5 is well within the normal range and nothing for anyone to worry about. The test detects elevations of that level which would be signs of irritation or injury.
