What are the treatment methods for children's liver disease

Patient's question:

Mother has hepatitis B and is currently undergoing treatment. A few days ago, liver function tests were done for the child, and it was found that both ALT and AST levels were 10-20 units higher than the normal range. The liver function test result was positive (135), and bilirubin levels were slightly elevated. What should be done now? Should treatment be started immediately? Which medications are best?
Current general condition: Poor appetite
Medical history: No other medical history
Previous diagnoses and treatment history and outcomes: Has not been seen before

Doctor's answer:

Hello, according to the situation you described, it is recommended that you take your child to the hospital to check on his two and a half conditions. Then, the clinical doctor should prescribe medication based on the examination results. Do not use medication privately. There are many causes of pediatric liver disease. If your child is diagnosed with pediatric liver disease, parents need to cooperate with the doctor to start treatment immediately, cooperate with gastrointestinal decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. Parents should pay attention not to develop picky eating habits in their children and maintain a balanced diet.
