Patient's question:
I am 38 years old and recently feel that my liver is very tired. I haven't had a good appetite, and at night, I always feel a sharp pain in my stomach. I went to a nearby hospital for a check-up and was told it was liver disease. They advised me to get injections. How can I effectively treat hepatitis B with a small positive two?Doctor's answer:
The symptoms of minor positive for HBsAg are not prominent. Some people may only experience mild fatigue, a sense of discomfort in the liver area, a dull pain, general fatigue, reduced appetite, and nausea. For minor positive individuals, it is recommended to undergo liver function and HBV-DNA tests every three to six months, as well as a liver ultrasound once a year, to closely monitor liver health. It is advisable to consume more edible fungi such as black fungus, shiitake mushrooms, and mushrooms, which can boost immunity. Avoid or limit the intake of fried, pickled, greasy, and spicy foods with strong irritants.
