Question
Can a male carrier of the Hepatitis B virus pass it on to his children?
Answer
Hepatitis B is a disease caused by infection with the Hepatitis B virus. The virus primarily exists within liver cells, leading to inflammation, necrosis, and fibrosis of the liver cells. There is currently no effective medication for the treatment of Hepatitis B, but interferon therapy can be adopted. If a child is diagnosed with liver disease, medical treatment should be sought promptly, and relevant treatment and care measures should be followed. Parents should pay attention to their child’s balanced diet and avoid picky eating.
