A member asked:

When your liver enzymes are elevated, what do liver doctors usually do about that?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Try to find the caus: The doctor should find out the cause and offer you treatment.. It may be some type of hepatitis which is either viral hepatitis(hepatitis-b or c) or due to excessive alcohol use which can damage the liver resulting in elevation of liver enzymes due to chemical liver injury.

A member asked:

I recently received elevated liver enzymes (ALT 149, AST 63), so my doctor ordered an ultrasound. That only thing that came back was a benign hemangioma. Could this be causing my elevated enzyme levels or is it likely something else?
