Doctor's answer:

Please check the result may indicate that you have previously been infected with hepatitis A virus. Further tests are needed to confirm this. If liver function is normal, you can be dynamically observed for a few days. Avoid excessive alcohol consumption and prevent overexertion. For patients, if the hepatitis A condition is severe, timely symptomatic treatment and appropriate medication are necessary. Otherwise, it may lead to a recurrence of hepatitis A.
