Patient's question:
My son, currently diagnosed with hepatitis E due to a urine test issue. His blood type is B. There are some irregularities in his liver area, and I'm very worried. The child is only 2 years old. I took him to the hospital for treatment, where he is taking medication. Now, I'm seeking advice on how to cure it effectively. How is hepatitis E treated?Doctor's answer:
The treatment of hepatitis C first depends on how normal the liver function is. If your liver function is normal, there is no need for systematic treatment or general treatment.(1) Proper rest: For those with obvious symptoms or more severe conditions, it is recommended to emphasize bed rest. Bed rest can increase liver blood flow, which helps in full recovery. For milder conditions, the goal is not to feel fatigued after exercise.
(2) Appropriate diet: A diet with moderate high protein, high calories, and high vitamin absorption is beneficial for liver repair. It is unnecessary to overemphasize high nutrition, as this may lead to recurrent fatty liver and alcohol consumption should be avoided.
For hepatitis E patients, in addition to symptomatic treatment, dietary therapy can be used as supplementary treatment in daily life. It is essential to avoid extreme hunger or overeating and never binge on food in daily meals.
