Suggest Possible Treatments To Improve ALT & AST , Vitamin And Iron Levels In Body For 6month Old

Hi - my son is going to be 6 months old on February 12. He remained sick throughout since 3 months and was kept in pneumonia a month ago. now again he was sick so the doctor took medical tests of LFTs, Iron, Vitamin D and it was found that his ALT and AST readings are too high (130+). Also, his Vitamin D value is too low (6 only) and there was iron deficiency as well.

Hi
Thanks for writing to health care magic.
What you need to do is to start iron and vitamins.
Moreover his vit d level is low. This needs specific d vitamin supplements .
Once these are corrected liver size should come down.
