Patient's question:
Recently, I've been feeling a bit of pain in the inner right ribs. When I press firmly with my hand, there's a specific point that hurts quite a lot. Other than that, there are no other symptoms. In the past few days, I've experienced nausea and vomiting, but there's no stomach pain, and my diet hasn't been unusual. Hello, how could I have hepatitis? How can it be tested?Doctor's answer:
Your current symptoms can only be questioned, but don't jump to conclusions just yet. I suggest you get your liver function and hepatitis B five tests checked, in addition to a liver and gallbladder ultrasound. This is necessary to diagnose the condition and its type. Don't take medication yet; first, let's wait for the results of the tests. If there are any issues, you can contact me again. There are many treatment methods for hepatitis, but since symptoms vary among patients, the treatment approaches also differ. Therefore, it's crucial for patients to be diagnosed as soon as possible so that they can receive the appropriate treatment.
