Welcome to the ChatDoctorMany diseases and conditions can contribute to elevated liver enzymes. Your doctor determines the specific cause of your elevated liver enzymes by reviewing your medications, your signs and symptoms and, in some cases, other tests and procedures. In my opinion it can occur due to Hepatitis, Long term paracetamol use, typhoid fever, pancreatitis, polymyositis, mononucleosis, Cytomegalovirus or Epstein-Barr virus infection in your child. As the levels are moderately raised and no other symptom apart from fever, typhoid is a more likely cause. I would suggest to look at Tidal test report and also go for a blood culture and sensitivity test. Changing antibiotic to Definite and Azithromycin will help in typhoid.
