Patient's question:
I've been feeling down lately, don't want to eat, and feel tired. My mother-in-law says my face is very pale and tells me to take care of my health. It's been more than a week, and my condition hasn't improved. My body is getting worse.Doctor's answer:
Hepatitis refers to inflammation of the liver. Infections caused by multiple pathogens such as viruses, bacteria, fungi, rickettsiae, spirochetes, and certain protozoa and parasites can all lead to liver inflammation. Early symptoms of hepatitis may include reduced appetite, poor digestion, abdominal pain after defecation, and a lack of hunger. Hepatitis patients may experience nausea and dry heaving after defecation, and they may feel easily fatigued after exercise. While hepatitis patients can receive professional treatment, they can also use folk remedies as supplementary treatment in daily life. It is essential to avoid excessive hunger or fullness in daily dietary habits and never overeat or binge drink.
