Patient's question:
I pressed the liver area with my hand and it felt a bit painful. The more force I applied, the more painful it became? Is it hepatitis B?Doctor's answer:
The characteristics of HBV infection include diverse clinical manifestations and a long incubation period (approximately 45 to 160 days, with an average of 60 to 90 days).Recommendation: If there is suspicion of hepatitis B, it is necessary to visit a hospital for confirmation to receive timely treatment. For patients, if the hepatitis B condition is severe, immediate symptomatic treatment and appropriate medication should be administered. Otherwise, it may lead to a recurrence of hepatitis B. Additionally, patients should maintain a proper diet and stay in a positive mood.
We hope the answers to these questions can help everyone. Thank you.
