Hello! With the question "high liver enzymes are infected with a virus?" The doctor would like to advise as follows:
Increased liver enzymes is a symptom of many diseases, mainly about the liver. Hepatitis virus infection may or may not cause liver enzymes to be elevated. Alcohol, drugs, fatty liver also increase liver enzymes. Therefore, if you have high liver enzymes, you should be checked for hepatitis viruses (mainly hepatitis B, C) because these agents are more likely to cause liver cancer. At the same time, early screening should be done for timely detection and treatment (if any), to limit future complications. You can go to the hospitals of Vinmec Health System for more advice.
Thank you for trusting Vinmec. Best regards!
