Patient's question:
Have you never had hepatitis B before? Is it definitely acute after infection? Can acute hepatitis B be cured?Doctor's answer:
Liver disease is a very broad category, divided into two types: 1. Viral hepatitis, also known as infectious hepatitis, including hepatitis B, hepatitis C, hepatitis A, hepatitis D, and hepatitis E. These types of hepatitis are infectious and are legally classified as infectious diseases in our country. 2. Most other types of hepatitis, such as fatty liver disease, alcoholic hepatitis, drug-induced hepatitis, autoimmune hepatitis, etc., are not infectious. Therefore, there is no need to be overly concerned about these hepatitis patients. Therefore, once liver damage is detected, it is essential to identify the cause. Only after the cause is determined can it be confirmed whether it is infectious and specific measures can be taken.
