Patient's question:
I am 38 years old. Recently, I feel that 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 was liver disease. They asked me to get an injection. Can hepatitis be easily transmitted?Doctor's answer:
Hepatitis is indeed easily infectious, mainly caused by hepatitis B or hepatitis C viruses. If it's a common hepatitis, it is generally not contagious. Viral hepatitis is typically the type that is infectious. Immune hepatitis or bacterial hepatitis rarely occurs with spread and transmission. If you share a teacup, it will not spread. It is mainly through direct blood contact or sexual transmission.
