Hello!
Hepatitis B is a disease caused by the HBV virus, 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 limit the consumption of substances harmful to the liver.
Your AFP index is so relatively high, the amount of virus is not high, I recommend you to carefully examine your liver with methods such as liver ultrasound, liver CT to rule out liver cancer and cirrhosis, as well as liver cancer. Like screening for liver cancer every 3-6 months.
Thank you for trusting Vinmec Health System, looking forward to meeting you directly for more detailed advice. Best regards!
