Patient's question:
Will children born to both parents being hepatitis B virus carriers be affected?Doctor's answer:
Hepatitis B is a disease caused by infection with the hepatitis B virus. The hepatitis B virus is a hepatotropic virus that primarily exists within liver cells and damages them, leading to liver cell inflammation, necrosis, and fibrosis. Hepatitis B is difficult to treat, and there is currently no specific medication available. You can try interferon treatment. There are multiple causes of pediatric liver disease. If a child is diagnosed with pediatric liver disease, parents need to cooperate with the doctor for timely treatment, cooperate with gastrointestinal decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. The child needs a balanced diet and should avoid stimulating and cold foods.
