Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
Your son has jaundice. His bilirubin and liver enzymes are still at higher side. He should take high protein diet and avoid fatty diet. He can take egg and meat. He can start regular food after a week. But repeat his SGPT, SGPT, Bilirubin and alkaline phosphatase. Once everything comes down to normal and he does not have any symptoms then he can start regular food.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have any doubts then contact me at bit.ly/Drsanghvihardik, I will be happy to answer you.
Thanks for using health care magic.
Wish you a very good health.
