Patient's question:
A while ago, during my health check-up, I carefully reviewed the report and found that I had acute jaundice caused by type B viral hepatitis. I was completely stunned and didn't know what this disease was, what its cause was, or what good methods there were for controlling and treating it at the moment.Doctor's answer:
If after careful examination it is considered to be hepatitis B, this situation should be noted and active treatment should be implemented, especially further careful checks of liver function and the five hepatitis B tests, as well as a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the liver, gallbladder, pancreas, and spleen. It is also necessary to check hepatitis B DNA to understand the specific viral copy number. Further antiviral treatment and liver-protecting treatment may be required. In daily life, it is important to maintain a regular diet, avoid fatigue and staying up late, and do not smoke or drink alcohol.
