Patient's question:
My son had an alkaline phosphatase level of 1500 during his hernia surgery. How can this be resolved? The situation isn't looking good, and I'm very worried.Doctor's answer:
In your case, you need to rule out two types of conditions: liver and gallbladder diseases, and skeletal diseases. If you don't have any of these related conditions, there's no need to worry too much. Since children are in their growth peak period, bone decomposition metabolism is very fast. High alkaline phosphatase levels are normal. You can first have the relevant department doctors confirm the diagnosis. If you're still not (not at ease), you can repeat the test for this item in a few days. If there are no other diseases, it won't have much impact on surgery. Do you have any other diseases?
