Patient's question:
Recently, my liver hasn't been feeling well, and I've noticed that the skin on the base of my thumb and pinky finger, specifically in the area of the thenar and hypothenar eminences, has developed a patchy redness again. I wanted to ask the doctor how this condition might be related to "minor hepatitis B" (HBeAg positive) and what would be the best treatment approach for it.Doctor's answer:
Simply relying on the reappearance of patchy redness on the skin of the palm's thenar eminence cannot diagnose hepatitis. If you suspect you have hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) positive (), it is recommended that you go to the infectious diseases department of a regular hospital for a thorough check of the hepatitis B panel (hepatitis B two pairs of half). Based on the detailed report of the hepatitis B panel, you can visually identify how you contracted hepatitis and the specific type of hepatitis. It is hoped that this will be helpful to you.
