Patient's question:
My uncle has been in very poor health recently. His appetite is also bad, and he often feels nauseous, with a bloated stomach. Sometimes he gets easily tired, and his stomach feels swollen and uncomfortable. He went to the hospital for a check-up and was diagnosed with acute hepatitis. We are all very worried that this disease will spread.Doctor's answer:
Mainly spread through blood, mother and child transmission, and sexual contact. If not given due importance and treatment, it may lead to liver cirrhosis and complications such as ascites, skin breakdown, and liver cancer, ultimately harming the soul. There was no specific medication to kill the virus before, and complete elimination of the virus entirely relied on the body's immunity. If the virus does not replicate and liver function remains normal, preventing the disease from progressing has already achieved the goal. It is recommended to improve testing, seek early treatment, slow down and suppress the progression of the disease, stabilize the condition, and only then can health and longevity be achieved. In daily life, it is important to pay attention to diet, avoid alcohol and spicy foods, and avoid overexertion and overtime work.
