Patient's question:
My sister-in-law discovered she has hepatitis B surface antigen positive (HBsAg+), and the newborn has jaundice. They are at the maternity and child health department's neonatal department. The test results showed that the child is HBsAg+ positive, but liver function is normal. The child received immune globulin immediately after birth. I would like to ask how to treat neonatal HBsAg+ positive.Doctor's answer:
A normal liver function test can prove that the person is an HBV carrier. It is essential to receive proper treatment to have a chance of recovery. Numerous clinical reports have demonstrated that some HBV carriers develop liver cancer directly, so it is crucial to prioritize correct treatment. Currently, Western medicine does not have a specific drug for treating hepatitis B. However, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and Chinese herbal medicine have accumulated many unique and effective treatment methods through long-term clinical practice. These methods are fast-acting and produce reliable results, with many patients remaining free of recurrence after being cured. Some traditional Chinese herbal formulas, when used in combination, can fundamentally alter the patient's immune tolerance state, activate the body's autoimmune response, and rebuild the liver's active immune function.
