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 a nearby hospital for a check-up and was told it was liver disease. They asked me to get an injection. I am a hepatitis C patient. Can it be cured?Doctor's answer:
Hepatitis C, being the most common type of hepatitis, generally does not heal completely on its own. However, if oral medication is taken in the early stages, symptoms can be effectively suppressed. It is recommended that patients visit a regular hospital for follow-up medical care and treatment early on to see how symptoms can be stabilized. If symptoms persist, it is necessary to start oral medication early. Drinking alcohol may exacerbate hepatitis C symptoms, so it is best to maintain a light diet and drink less.
