My PT is 15 seconds and INR is 1.17

2021-12-10 12:20:01
I am having blood in my mucus frequently over last one month. I had PT (Prothrambine  time) test which is 15 secs (higher than the normal range of 14.4 secs) but INR seems to be well in range at 1.17.  Does it mean the bleeding is due to liver abnormalities or PT of 15 sec is normal?. Should i go for LFT?
