Need not to worry

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting a query,

The SGOT and SGPT levels are not highly elevated. It indicates that your son had any infection in recent past which would have gone unnoticed. It will come back to normal in few days.

I suggest you not to worry much. Do a repeat test for the SGOT and SGPT after a month or 2 If again the levels are raised then you'll have to consult a Doctor to do further investigations to rule out the cause.

Any query do follow up.

Take care.
