What should I do if there are seven or eight needle-sized spider angiomas appearing on my chest?

Patient's question:

Thirty years of hepatitis B infection, because of the recurrence of spider angiomas, I went to see a doctor. The result showed that the hepatitis B surface antigen turned negative, and antibodies were present, with viral load <100. In the help of: What caused my spider angiomas?

Doctor's answer:

Based on your question, the appearance of spider angiomas does not necessarily indicate a of hepatitis B; excessive estrogen excretion can also lead to the recurrence of spider angioma symptoms. You previously had hepatitis B, but now you have surface antibodies, which is very good news. A viral load below 1000 is normal. I recommend retesting for hepatitis B surface antigen and liver function. If you indeed have hepatitis B surface antibodies, it is excellent news. The probability of spontaneous clearance of hepatitis B is only 3%, so you are very lucky.
