Patient's question:
My friend is a carrier of the hepatitis B virus, but after going to the hospital for a check-up, they didn't prescribe any medication (I heard it's nothing serious). However, I'm not sure if I might get infected with hepatitis B by eating leftover food he ate.Doctor's answer:
According to your description, if you are an HBV carrier, you are not infectious and there is no need to worry. It is recommended that the transmission routes of hepatitis B are blood, sexual contact, and mother-to-child transmission. Daily contact does not lead to infection, and if you have antibodies in your body, there is no need to worry. In addition, during the treatment of hepatitis B, in addition to immediate treatment, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also particularly important. The patient must always maintain a cheerful mood and eat a balanced diet to avoid unnecessary interference with the complete recovery from hepatitis B.
