 No treatment is necessary for hepatitis A because it does NOT cause chronic liver disease. I would wonder if your liver function tests are related to fatty liver. The ultrasound can often miss this. You would be at risk if you are overweight, have high cholesterol or triglycerides, insulin resistance or frank diabetes. | ||||||||
