Patient's question:
Does the chair sat on by a hepatitis B patient, or the daily items used by them, leave behind hepatitis B virus? What is the difference between hepatitis B virus and hepatitis B bacteria? How must the hepatitis B virus necessarily be excreted from the body through the excrement (such as body fluids) of a hepatitis B patient? Does the clothes worn by a hepatitis B patient have the virus?Doctor's answer:
This situation does not involve the hepatitis B virus. The chairs you have sat on, the items you have used, and the clothes you have worn will absolutely not carry the hepatitis B virus, as it cannot survive on these surfaces. The transmission routes of hepatitis B are blood, medical sources, mother-to-child, father-to-child, and sexual transmission. Do not panic excessively; hepatitis B is not as terrifying as it may seem. The daily treatment for liver disease patients primarily involves symptomatic medication. Patients can take many oral medications, complemented by various vitamins, and pay attention to their diet by consuming light, soft, and easily digestible foods. We hope that liver disease patients can recover as soon as possible!
