Can hepatitis C be cured?

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 an injection. Can hepatitis C be cured?

Doctor's answer:

If you are infected with hepatitis C and liver function shows another increase in transaminase levels, this situation can be described as having acute hepatitis C. In this case, you should promptly go to an adult hospital for follow-up treatment. Generally, the cure rate for acute hepatitis C is very high, and it can usually heal on its own within one to three months. For chronic hepatitis C, treatment is relatively slower, but the cure rate is also quite high. Therefore, it is important to actively understand and treat hepatitis C.
