Patient's question:
Last month, I started feeling particularly easily fatigued and lacking energy. My bowel movements also became infrequent, and my complexion looked bad. I went to the hospital and was diagnosed with hepatitis B. I have been treated several times, but there has been no effect at all. I only frequently eat dinner out, and haven't done anything else.Doctor's answer:
The hepatitis B virus is present in the blood of patients and virus carriers, so hepatitis B is mainly spread through blood. For example, during vaccination, if only the needle is changed but not the syringe, and if the anesthetized person's blood contains the hepatitis B virus, the virus may be drawn back into the syringe when the blood is aspirated. When anesthetizing others, the virus and vaccine could be injected together, leading to transmission. Similarly, if acupuncture needles, dental drills, ear-pricking needles, or scalp needles are not properly sterilized, they can all spread hepatitis B.
