Patient's question:
Hepatitis B for over ten years, minor positive, normal liver function. A few days ago, the ultrasound suggested slightly coarse echoes in the liver parenchyma. How should it be treated, can it be reversed?Doctor's answer:
I'm glad to clarify this for you. According to your description, you have hepatitis B surface antigen positive (HBsAg positive), which indicates that you are carrying the virus and have viral replication! This long-term harm to liver cells generally progresses slowly, but it is irreversible damage. It is recommended that you still use antiviral drugs. The best outcome is to become a chronic carrier of the virus! In fact, having hepatitis B is not, and patients should believe that they can overcome the disease. As long as symptoms are detected early and treated accordingly, the chances of stabilizing the condition and recovering are very high.
