Can viral hepatitis be cured?

Patient's question:

I haven't been able to eat properly these days, and I often feel very nauseous. My abdomen occasionally hurts, and I also lack energy. The doctor said it's viral hepatitis and told me to take medication. In addition to taking medication, I'm a bit afraid it might develop into cirrhosis. Can this be cured?

Doctor's answer:

Middle-aged male, occasionally experiencing abdominal pain symptoms accompanied by nausea and fatigue. If a thorough examination indicates viral hepatitis, then it is considered that this series of symptoms is directly related to hepatitis. It is recommended to avoid smoking and alcohol stimuli, prevent anger and anxiety, maintain a light diet, avoid overeating, and preferably receive antiviral treatment, taking it according to the prescribed course. Regular follow-up is necessary for hepatitis series, liver and kidney function tests, and hepatitis B virus DNA quantification.
