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 have been feeling stomach pain at night. I went to the nearby hospital for a check-up and was told it's liver disease. They advised me to get an injection. Could you please tell me what the best method for neonatal hepatitis B quantitative testing is currently?Doctor's answer:
Hello, newborns must undergo hepatitis B testing after birth. Within 24 hours of delivery, the doctor will take a blood test. If the mother is a carrier of the hepatitis B virus, it is important to cooperate with the doctor for proper isolation during labor. In most cases, it will not be transmitted to the baby. After the newborn undergoes the necessary tests, they will be promptly vaccinated with the BCG vaccine, which has the effect of preventing hepatitis.
