You should follow with your doctor. Usually, the cause can be identified with history and laboratory studies. A liver biopsy is occasionally necessary for diagnosis and sometimes for assessing if there has been any liver damage. The list includes autoimmune disorders such as autoimmune hepatitis, medications including herbal remedies, inflammatory conditions such as certain rheumatologic/immunologic conditions and celiac sprue, metabolic disorders including fatty liver with dislipidemia, hemochromatosis, etc. to name a few. The complete list is substantially longer. I certainly would not recommend ignoring your ALT abnormality. Chronic elevation of ALT may be a sign of a disease process that after years or decades would lead to liver cirrhosis and end-stage liver disease/liver failure and its associated complications.
is it true or false nephrosarcoma usually starts in the liver
It depends on the drug. Some may inhibit breathing or other vital functions to fail, others might cause a slow painful process of your liver or kidneys shutting down.
You can give calpol 250mg to a child for 3 days, repeat every 6 hours a day. But do not go for more dosage as it can cause liver damage.
