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 advised me to get injections. How should I treat hepatitis B with a small positive?Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to what you said, if you have a small hepatitis B positive and normal liver function, you are a hepatitis B virus carrier. Carriers do not need antiviral treatment, even if the virus level is very high. Therefore, it is recommended that you have a liver function test and an improved B-ultrasound examination. If there are no treatment indicators, you can temporarily have irregular liver function tests. But if there are indicators for antiviral treatment, it is recommended to start antiviral treatment in a timely manner.
