Hello! A positive Anti-HBc test indicates that your mother has been infected with hepatitis B in the past and has recovered on her own. However, you should encourage your mother to complete tests to evaluate liver function as well as antibodies to the hepatitis virus and to follow up periodically according to the doctor's appointment.
You can take your mother to the hospital of Vinmec Health System to have tests and be consulted by specialist doctors, ensuring comprehensive health.
Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing your family good health. Best regards!
