summary

I suffered from hepatitis B is caused by infection, because the discovery is relatively late, and the effect of treatment is not good, later even complicated with cirrhosis, it is necessary to understand the harm of chronic hepatitis B. Let's take a look at the harm of chronic hepatitis B.

What does the harm of chronic second liver have

First, hepatitis B virus exists in the body for a long time, constantly damaging the liver. In the process of chronic hepatitis B virus infection, the body needs to repeatedly remove hepatitis B virus, which can last for several years to decades. Due to the low immune function, the virus can not be removed, the liver tissue is repeatedly damaged and repaired, and the liver produces varying degrees of fibrosis. B ultrasonic examination and histological examination can clearly see that the liver has obvious fibrosis changes. If the treatment is not timely and can not effectively treat fibrosis, it will turn into regenerative nodules and form pseudo lobules. About 20% of the people have cirrhosis.

Second: the course of disease can develop to liver cirrhosis, liver cancer, life-threatening, chronic hepatitis B in the initial stage, although the liver damage, but can not have obvious symptoms, resulting in many people did not find themselves suffering from chronic hepatitis B disease. Due to the gradual deterioration of liver compensatory capacity, once hepatitis activity occurs, it is very easy to have serious consequences such as jaundice, ascites, bleeding, coma, and oliguria. Among hepatitis B virus carriers, 50% ~ 75% of them have chronic hepatitis B with active viral replication. It is estimated that the incidence of chronic hepatitis B progressing to liver cirrhosis in 5 years is 2% ~ 20%; from compensated cirrhosis to liver decompensation is 20% ~ 23%; from compensated cirrhosis to liver cancer is 6% ~ 15%.

Third: and other diseases, increase the burden of health, chronic hepatitis B in all systems of the body can occur complications, the harm to patients is systematic.

matters needing attention

It is difficult to cure hepatitis B thoroughly, but patients should not worry too much and actively cooperate with the treatment. And pay attention to diet, pay attention to sleep, pay attention to rest, or will be the same as normal people.
