Patient's question:
I have chronic hepatitis B with high viral load (). My mother, younger brother, aunt, and uncle also have it. Hello, is it necessary to seek treatment? Some people say it's not necessary, just need to maintain a regular lifestyle. If treatment is needed, what methods are the most effective?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. However, it is essential to pay attention to the following points:1. Due to the difficulty of various antiviral drugs to be effective, it is not advisable to blindly pursue a positive-to-negative conversion.
2. Achieve a balance between rest and activity, combined with regular follow-ups.
3. Lower personal immune function and antiviral ability to strive for complete elimination of the hepatitis B virus and maintain a state of non-recurrence.
4. Perform periodic liver function tests.
5. Avoid drinking beer and smoking.
6. Avoid foods with strong irritants.
7. Ensure deep sleep.
8. Maintain a positive mood.
In fact, having chronic hepatitis B () is not at all. Patients should believe that they can overcome the disease. As long as timely treatment is provided in the early stages, the chances of stabilizing the condition and recovering are very high.
