Question
Which liver disease hospital in Zhongshan City, Guangdong Province, is considered high-quality? My child, who is three years old, tested positive for the first and fifth items in the Hepatitis B test.
Answer
Hepatitis B is a contagious disease caused by the Hepatitis B virus, which can be transmitted through blood, bodily fluids, and mother-to-child transmission. If a child tests positive for surface antigen and core antibody at the age of three during a Hepatitis B test, it indicates that they have been infected with Hepatitis B. However, if there are no clinical symptoms, they are considered carriers of Hepatitis B with relatively low infectivity. It is recommended to undergo a Hepatitis B DNA test at a professional hospital to confirm whether the virus is replicating. For treatment and consultation, it is best to visit a qualified medical institution.
