How are hepatitis B carriers treated?

Patient's question:

Three-year-old boy, during the two pairs and a half check, HBSAG and HBEAG were positive, and the aspartate aminotransferase value in liver function was 54.

Doctor's answer:

This test result shows a positive for hepatitis B minor double positive, suggesting the possibility of hepatitis B transmission, with a higher likelihood of mother-to-child transmission. Regarding this situation, it is necessary to confirm the need for treatment based on the test results of hepatitis B virus DNA and liver function. Generally, if the test results for hepatitis B virus DNA and liver function are normal, medication treatment is not required. If the hepatitis B virus DNA is below normal levels, antiviral treatment can be considered, which may lead to a potential for negativity. Hepatitis patients can, while understanding symptomatic treatment, use folk remedies as supplementary treatment in daily life. It is important to maintain a proper diet in daily life and avoid stimulating foods.
