Doctor's answer:

The severity of hepatitis B cannot be determined by whether it is classified as "big three positive" or "small three positive." It is necessary to conduct a thorough examination of liver function, ultrasound, and a comprehensive evaluation to make an assessment. "Big three positive" hepatitis B can also be lifelong carriers, and "small three positive" can also lead to liver cancer. The most important thing is to undergo regular check-ups and pay attention to daily conditioning. The condition of hepatitis B is very serious, and it is recommended that patients seek immediate treatment. It is hoped that patients can follow their doctors' advice for targeted treatment. At the same time, it is important to pay attention to self-care, maintain a proper diet, and avoid worsening the condition.
