Patient's question:
I have been fond of drinking beer since my youth, and I am aware that excessive beer consumption has a very negative impact on my body. Recently, I came across the disease of alcoholic liver, which is also caused by drinking too much beer, and I became worried that it might be transmitted to my family and friends.Doctor's answer:
What people commonly refer to as infectious hepatitis is viral hepatitis, which has varying degrees of transmissibility. Its characteristics include complex transmission routes, widespread prevalence, and a high incidence rate. Previously identified viral hepatitis types mainly include five: hepatitis A, B, C, D, and E. In recent years, hepatitis G and hepatitis TTV have also been discovered. Additionally, many less common infectious agents can also cause viral hepatitis, such as EB virus, cytomegalovirus, yellow fever, and certain enteroviruses, all of which have some level of transmissibility. Patients should also pay attention to dietary aspects, such as eating light meals and avoiding spicy and foods. At the same time, patients should also be careful to choose an authoritative hospital for diagnosis, so they can obtain good treatment effects.
