Chronic Hepatitis
Chronic hepatitis is a serious liver disease that can cause progressive liver damage and potentially life-threatening complications. It is a type of chronic hepatitis that is not cured and can be transmitted from person to person. The most common cause of chronic hepatitis is the hepatitis B virus, which attacks the liver and can lead to liver damage and liver cancer. The hepatitis C virus can also cause liver damage and is often associated with liver cirrhosis. Chronic hepatitis can cause a range of symptoms, including fatigue, loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, dark urine, and yellowing of the skin and eyes (jaundice). The disease can also cause itching, rashes, and swelling in the legs and feet. Many people with chronic hepatitis do not experience any symptoms at all. There are several treatments available for chronic hepatitis, including medication to manage symptoms and a liver transplant if the liver damage is severe. It is important to seek medical attention if you think you may have chronic hepatitis, as untreated the disease can lead to serious health complications.
