If you feel that you are facing symptoms of a liver disorder, you should definitely take a liver function test. Common symptoms include yellowish skin and eyes(often an indication of jaundice), abdominal pain especially on the right side, swollen hands and legs, darker urine, excessive fatigue, nausea or vomiting. A liver blood test checks the levels of enzymes, proteins and bile in your blood to see if your liver is functioning properly or not.
Our liver function health package includes a series of blood tests that determine the level of proteins and enzymes in your blood. It measures the level of enzymes the liver produces and also how much bile the liver clears out in the blood. Some common tests include testing for ALT, AST, ALP, albumin and total protein, Bilirubin to name a few.
Based on the results, your general physician in Bengaluru will recommend a course of treatment or even refer you to a liver specialist if needed.
