Can you exercise if you have hepatitis?

Patient's question:

I am 38 years old. Recently, I feel that my liver is very tired. I haven't had a good 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 was liver disease. They advised me to get injections. I would like to ask if it is okay to exercise with hepatitis?

Doctor's answer:

Recurring cases of hepatitis B can also be appropriately engaged in activities, but if the condition is relatively severe, it is advisable to reduce the amount of exercise. The main focus should be on ensuring good rest and deep sleep, as this helps in the recovery of the condition. When the condition is stable, light exercise can be appropriate, but it is also important to prevent excessive fatigue. Timely use of liver-protecting medications for treatment is necessary, and maintaining a good dietary habit is also essential.
