Patient's question:
I am an HBsAg positive patient. It is said online that treatment is needed but not needed. So, should I really be treated?Doctor's answer:
It is recommended to have liver function and DNA tests. Through liver function tests, it can be determined whether there are signs of liver damage. DNA tests can clarify the number of viruses in your body, how the viruses are in the copying and adaptation stage, and how infectious they are. As long as liver function and DNA are within the normal range, treatment may not be necessary for the time being, and regular follow-up tests can be conducted.Patients face the distress of liver disease, and we should actively adopt treatment measures and not avoid seeking medical attention. If liver disease is not effectively treated, it is important to promptly switch to a new treatment plan.
