Patient's question:
My child was just born and received a vaccination. Will I still get infected with hepatitis B? Because my sister has hepatitis B. Am I an antibody?Doctor's answer:
Regarding the situation you have described. Your child has received anesthesia and a vaccination. It is recommended to have a follow-up check on the entire hepatitis B panel to see if the hepatitis B surface antibody is positive. If it is positive, this indicates the presence of antibodies. Regarding the situation you have described. If antibodies are present, it is still important to minimize contact with hepatitis B patients. For related technical advice, you should consult with the infectious disease department.Doctor's inquiry: For the patient, if the condition of chronic hepatitis B () is severe, immediate symptomatic treatment and appropriate medication should be administered. Otherwise, it may lead to a recurrence of chronic hepatitis B. Additionally, the patient needs to pay attention to their diet and psychological care. It is hoped that the answers to these questions can assist everyone. Thank you.
