What are the precautions for having a large positive hepatitis B surface antigen?

Patient's question:

Regret not getting vaccinated for the hepatitis B vaccine earlier, as I didn't pay much attention to it myself. Now I have developed chronic hepatitis B (HBsAg positive). Since our family has both young and old living in the same house, I'm worried about infecting them. What are the precautions for chronic hepatitis B (HBsAg positive)?

Doctor's answer:

Patients with hepatitis B () primarily need to pay attention to regular and thorough liver function tests, as well as hepatitis B virus DNA tests, to monitor for any abnormalities. If significant abnormalities appear repeatedly, medication must be used for symptomatic treatment. At the same time, it is also essential to maintain a healthy lifestyle and diet, avoiding the frequent consumption of foods, and not staying up late frequently.
