Patient's question:
Patient: Male, currently 40 years old. Around the age of 5, he became a hepatitis B carrier due to surgery, and he wants to understand how he can self-cure?Doctor's answer:
The main routes of transmission for hepatitis B are body fluid transmission and horizontal transmission. If you have a virus carrier, you can undergo laboratory tests to know the results. It is recommended to have blood tests for hepatitis B surface antigen, hepatitis B DNA, and other relevant tests to determine if you still have the hepatitis B virus and whether you are currently infectious. Based on the results, additional measures can be taken. In fact, having liver disease is not (terrible); patients should believe that they can overcome the illness. As long as treatment is timely and effective in the early stages, the chances of stabilizing the condition and recovering are very high.
