Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Pan Yongyuan
High albumin levels may be caused by consuming excessive amounts of high-protein foods such as eggs and milk recently. This situation is due to physiological reasons and usually does not require special treatment. Alternatively, it could be caused by pathological conditions such as pancreatitis or kidney diseases. Since the underlying causes vary among patients, it is important to cooperate with a doctor to complete relevant examinations and determine the specific cause.
