Question
How should the Hepatitis B virus be treated? What are the effective treatment methods? Can you provide professional advice?
Answer
Carriers of the Hepatitis B virus, defined as those with a positive HBsAg but without symptoms or signs of hepatitis, with normal liver function tests and no changes observed after six months, are not the same as patients with Hepatitis B. For such carriers, they should not be treated as acute hepatitis patients. Apart from not being able to donate blood and not engaging in direct contact with food and childcare work, they can continue with their regular work and studies but need to strengthen follow-up. HBsAg carriers should pay attention to personal hygiene, menstrual hygiene, and occupational hygiene. Toothbrushes, razors, and wash utensils should be used separately from those of healthy individuals.
