Dear j.s. lybrate-user greetings! my best wishes for abstaining from alcohol. It is very difficult but you have overcome it with your habit. As far as the enzymes are concerned, they are mildly elevated. Your weight is also on the higher side so, liver is doing extra work on the glucose, fat and protein metabolism besides neutralizing the alcohol that you were consuming. Nonetheless, things will improve gradually as liver is a massive organ with a lot of buffer to work normally. What I would recommend is a diet and lifestyle change coupled with some ayurveda supplements that protects the liver and also helps in correcting the metabolism. Should you need to know more, you can contact me and I can give you more info on the same after a consultation. Have a nice day!

Treating a sprained ankle promotes recovery and prevents further discomfort. It’s important not to put weight on the injured area while you’re recovering from an ankle sprain. Home treatments you may be able to treat mild sprains at home.

On the first day, you should apply ice every 20 to 30 minutes, three to four times per day. Afterward, apply ice every three to four hours for the next two days. Your doctor may tell you to stay off of your injured ankle until the pain subsides. For mild sprains, this may take a week to 10 days, while more severe sprains may take up to several weeks to heal.

Actually it's due to mild deficiency of a enzyme which converts unconjugated to conjugated bilirubin, it's not a problem ,but don't stress your liver too much by alcohol and regular high fatty diets ,non veg.
