Patient's question:
My husband has hepatitis B and has been taking medication for it. However, he is extremely thin and looks almost like a skeleton. Due to this illness, his work has been going poorly, and his mood is also bad. He eats very little for dinner. I'm worried that his extreme thinness is related to his hepatitis B, but I really don't know how to help him gain some weight. It's very frustrating.Doctor's answer:
Your frail body may be related to your liver disease to some extent. It is recommended that you actively treat your liver disease and pay attention to enhancing nutrition. For those who are underweight, gaining weight is very necessary. Your diet should be rich and varied, without meat deficiency or picky eating. Pay attention to deep sleep, exercise more, and lower your immunity, which is very helpful for your condition.The condition of hepatitis B is very serious. It is recommended that patients receive timely and symptomatic treatment according to their doctor's advice. At the same time, pay attention to dietary issues and avoid spicy and irritating foods to prevent worsening the condition.
