Can hepatitis B be cured?
Generally speaking, hepatitis B refers to chronic hepatitis B. Whether chronic hepatitis B can be cured depends on a comprehensive evaluation of specific infection type, patient's immune status, and treatment interventions. If experiencing symptoms such as fatigue, jaundice, or liver area pain, prompt medical attention is recommended. Detailed analysis is as follows:
If chronic hepatitis B patients are inactive carriers with mild infection type, good immune status, and no abnormal liver function, through long-term regular monitoring, some patients can maintain stable condition. A few individuals may even achieve surface antigen clearance, reaching a clinically curative effect, although this scenario is relatively rare and requires continuous monitoring of health indicators.
If chronic hepatitis B patients have active infection type, weak immune status, and existing liver function damage, timely standardized antiviral treatment can effectively suppress viral replication, improve liver function, and delay disease progression. However, most patients require long-term medication for control, as complete viral clearance is difficult to achieve. Clinical control can be realized to reduce the risk of cirrhosis and liver cancer.
Daily attention should be given to avoiding staying up late and alcohol consumption to reduce liver damage. Patients should adhere to regular follow-up tests of liver function and viral load, adjust treatment plans timely, maintain a healthy diet and moderate exercise, enhance physical immunity, and assist in disease management and recovery.
