Answer
Hello. Hepatitis B is a disease caused by the HBV virus, and if the infection becomes chronic it is important to prevent and minimize damage to the liver. With proper treatment, the prognosis is usually very good. However, it is not always necessary to immediately treat with antiviral drugs, but it is necessary to monitor and test the status of the liver as well as the body so that the treatment can be most effective.
Your need to do is to monitor and examine your liver periodically, limit excessive exercise, supplement nutrition and reduce consumption of substances harmful to the liver. Your viral load is not high, but it needs to be compared with other tests and clinical factors to decide whether to treat or follow up.
For in-depth consultation, you can go to a hospital under Vinmec Health System to do tests and get treatment in case of need. Thank you for trusting and sharing your concerns with Vinmec. Best regards.
