Patient's question:
What does the result of the hepatitis B surface antigen test being negative (?) mean? Why is there an asterisk after the negative sign?Doctor's answer:
I'm glad to be of service to you. If it's based on the description of your lab report, your situation is that you don't have antibodies. If you don't have antibodies, and you often eat out, I suggest you go to the vaccination center to get vaccinated, such as the hepatitis B vaccine, to prevent the spread of hepatitis B. For patients with hepatitis B, if the condition is severe, immediate symptomatic treatment and proper medication should be administered. Otherwise, it may lead to a recurrence of hepatitis B. In addition, patients need to maintain a positive mood to avoid worsening the condition. I hope the answers to these questions can help everyone. Thank you.
