my 17 year old son had some blood work.done and it came back.showing abnormal.liver high enzymes so his family dr checked it again and it came back abnormal.again i just wonder why or what it could be causing the abnormal test?

Hello Anon

Thank you for writing.

High enzymes may mean inflammation in the liver.

This can be caused by a variety of viruses (including Hepatitis) or medications. Drinking alcohol can temporarily raise levels too.
Even a medication like Advil can raise enzymes. If he has been taking it for pain or a sports injury, this may explain higher levels.
Ask your son about this and his doctor can also offer further explanations.

Best,
Susan
