Patient's question:
I always feel uncomfortable and not in the best spirits. How is jaundice from hepatitis A treated?Doctor's answer:
Hello, if jaundice is caused by hepatitis A, you need to assess the severity of jaundice. Generally, hepatitis A is primarily transmitted through the digestive tract, so antiviral treatment and jaundice-reducing medications are usually required. Additionally, it's important to monitor for any abnormal liver function. If liver function is abnormal, liver-protecting medications may be necessary. Precautions to prevent infection should also be taken, as hepatitis A can often resolve on its own.
