Patient's question:
Recently, I don't know why I've been having high fever that won't go down. The hospital said it's a viral infection. What kind of infectious disease did I get? What are the prevention methods for viral hepatitis?Doctor's answer:
For viral hepatitis, the specifics depend on the type—whether it's hepatitis A, B, C, or E. The routes of infection vary for different types of hepatitis. Some are transmitted through the fecal-oral route, while others are blood-borne. Hepatitis B is the most common. To confirm the type of hepatitis B, it's necessary to test for the five hepatitis B markers. Generally, the "big three positive" (HBeAg positive) strain has a higher transmissibility. Participate actively in physical exercise, regulate physical and mental health, and maintain personal hygiene.
