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 a nearby hospital for a check-up and was told it was liver disease. They asked me to get an injection. Which hospital is good for treating liver damage caused by chronic hepatitis B?Doctor's answer:
Your condition is mainly caused by hepatitis B leading to liver damage. Now, it's important to see how much your transaminase levels have dropped. Additionally, we need to check if your bilirubin levels have decreased. If both bilirubin and transaminase levels are down, it would be quite difficult to treat. However, liver function is just one indicator. We also need to closely monitor the results of two other tests: hepatitis B HBV-DNA and liver ultrasound. Only after weighing these three results can we decide whether to proceed with antiviral treatment!
