Should I Be Concerned About My High Alkaline Phosphatase and Bilirubin Levels?

Patient's Query

Hello there, i had a question about a recent blood test i had. My alkaline phosphatase level was slightly high at 134 with reference range being 30-130 and my bilirubin was 31 with reference range being below 21, is this something i should be concerned about?

Answered by Dr. Samrat Jankar

your alkaline phosphatase and bilirubin are slightly higher than normal. These levels could show liver or bone problems. It would be necessary that you see a gastroenterologist or a hepatologist to conduct further investigations and therapy.

I got into a fight and was suffocating under someone's weight when I coughed up blood. After which, I ingested some harpic and it hurts my chest and near my stomach to swallow anything at all. This was 2 days ago. I weigh 60 kgs. I also get blurry vision sometimes although I'm unsure if its the trauma to my head or harpic.

You might have serious internal injuries. If you cough up any blood, have chest pain or trouble swallowing, or cannot see clearly, you should be concerned. Ingesting Harpic might have hurt your esophagus and stomach even more. Internal bleeding or other complications could be why these symptoms are occurring; therefore it is vital that you seek immediate medical attention.

Hi. I ate leftover food from last night for lunch. It was in the microwave last night and morning time I put it in the refrigerator. It didn't smell bad when I smelled it and it didn't make me sick when I ate it. But I was worried to much if I made a mistake eating it. So I forced myself to throw it out. Please advise ????

Consuming food that has been out of reach for a certain amount of time might result in food intoxication. The symptoms of food poisoning may include aches, discomfort, cramps, nausea, and vomiting. If there is no evidence of these symptoms after you eat the food, it's likely that your body didn’t react.

I am suffering from IBS and losing my hair plz stop my hair fall I think it's nutrition observation problem

Male | 26

IBS and hair loss frustrate you. Hair loss with IBS could mean poor nutrient absorption. IBS brings stomach pain, bloating, and bowel habit shifts. Focus on die­t rich in vitamins and minerals for hair growth: iron, zinc, and biotin. See a he­althcare provider about suppleme­nts for nutrients.

She is 2years 7months old baby. She is facing constipation problem (3days / 2days once) the stole also very hard while coming out. She is very struggling because of it. Am giving spinach weekly thrice and giving vegetables daily in her meal. Apple everyday. She is not comfortable in chewing it and taking lot of time so am offering her in smoothy form.

Constipation means less number of bowel movements or finding of it difficult to do so. This can happen due to the lack of fiber and water in the diet. You did a good job with spinach, veggies, and apple. You can also try giving her more water and whole grains along with her meals.

Female | 19

It's important to see a gastroenterologist for your stomach ache, especially since it occurs after eating or drinking and hasn't improved with metronidazole. They can diagnose the cause and suggest the best treatment for your condition.

I can't eat because of side effects of previous medicine

Male | 23

Fee­ling queasy after taking medicine­ can be tough. Meds sometime­s cause side effe­cts like no appetite, nause­a, or tummy ache. They can bother your stomach lining. Eat tiny bland me­als and pause betwee­n bites. Ginger tea may he­lp calm things too. If worried about meds, let your doctor know. The­y can guide what's best.
