Patient's question:
How is hepatitis B treated? What are the symptoms of hepatitis B? Can the hepatitis B virus be transmitted? What are the routes of transmission?Doctor's answer:
Chronic hepatitis B is an infectious disease caused by the hepatitis B virus, which can be spread through blood and body fluids. Mild hepatitis B does not show clinical symptoms, while severe cases with liver damage may exhibit symptoms such as fatigue, poor appetite, and jaundice. Hepatitis B has a standardized treatment plan, and antiviral drugs such as lamivudine or entecavir can be taken. It is recommended to undergo standardized treatment under the guidance of a hepatology doctor. The daily treatment for hepatitis B patients primarily involves symptomatic treatment. Patients can take many oral medications, supplement with various vitamins, and pay attention to their diet by eating light, soft, and easy-to-digest foods. We hope that hepatitis B patients can recover quickly! Thank you!
