Patient's question:
I only realized now that I have chronic hepatitis B. Is this disease always incurable? I haven't been taking good care of myself. I have to live with this for the rest of my life. I'm a little worried, but my future children might also get the same disease. Can this disease be cured?Doctor's answer:
Currently, there is no medication that can completely eliminate the hepatitis B virus. If liver function is normal, treatment is generally not required, but the following points must be noted:1. Due to the difficulty of various antiviral drugs to be effective, it is not advisable to solely pursue an HBeAg-negative conversion.
2. It is essential to achieve a combination of regulating rest and work, follow-up, and medical supervision.
3. Lowering personal immune function and antiviral capabilities to strive for complete elimination of the hepatitis B virus and maintaining a state of non-recurrence.
4. Regularly recheck liver function.
5. Avoid drinking beer and smoking.
6. Do not eat foods with strong irritants.
7. Ensure deep sleep and adequate rest.
8. Maintain a positive mood.
