Can people with hepatitis still smoke?

Patient's question:

I am 38 years old. Recently, I feel my liver is very tired. I haven't had much appetite, and at night, I always feel a sharp pain in my stomach. I went to the nearby hospital for a check-up and was told it's a liver disease. They asked me to get injections. I would like to ask if people with hepatitis can still smoke?

Doctor's answer:

Patients with hepatitis should definitely quit smoking and drinking to prevent contact with spicy, greasy, and cold foods. They should also avoid fatigue and staying up late. Over-smoking can lead to chronic hepatitis and liver damage, and it can also increase the incidence of liver cirrhosis and make it easier to develop liver cancer, which is the most dangerous and has the highest level of malignancy. In addition to the above, it is also necessary to prevent fatigue and staying up late, and you can eat more vegetables, fruits, and food.
