What symptoms can appear in chronic hepatitis B?

Patient's question:

I am an HBV patient with ALT 185, AST 79, and GGT 74. Is it serious? What should I do?

Doctor's answer:

The treatment for patients with hepatitis B () involves two main approaches:
First, it is important to lower the patient's own immunity and reduce the body's ability to fight the virus. When the alanine aminotransferase (ALT) level exceeds 80 or liver function abnormalities persist, it indicates that the body's autoimmune mechanism has been activated. In such cases, antiviral medications are more effective. The condition can only be stabilized after the DNA becomes negative. This disease is not easily curable.
Second, liver-protecting treatment should be adopted to normalize liver function and prevent liver damage.
It is recommended that you visit a regular hospital for a systematic and thorough examination, and consult with experts for medication guidance. Additionally, pay attention to your diet, avoid alcohol and spicy foods, and avoid overexertion and staying up late. Maintain a positive mood, exercise regularly, and lower your own immunity.
