What types of hepatitis B virus carriers are there

  Hepatitis B virus carriers, mostly refers to asymptomatic hepatitis B virus carriers (ASC), that is, those who have positive blood tests for hepatitis B surface antigen alone, and also said to refer to those who have positive various patterns of hepatitis B antigen and antibody tests (except for single positive surface antibody), but no signs and symptoms of hepatitis, all liver function tests are normal, and no change after six months of observation. It is generally believed that hepatitis B virus carriers can work and study as usual.  According to statistics, about one in ten people in China may carry the hepatitis B virus. The causes are mainly mother-to-child transmission and exposure to hepatitis B virus in adolescents and adults with weak immune function.  Asymptomatic HBsAg carriers are divided into 3 categories: 1. Those who have suffered from hepatitis and are totally unaware of it. The clinical symptoms and liver damage are mild and heal quickly, and only show the HBsAg carrier status after the disease. 2, healthy carriers, after repeated laboratory tests are normal liver function, no symptoms and signs, and even liver biopsy did not see pathological damage, liver tissue structure is intact. 3, liver biopsy pathology diagnosis of chronic prolonged hepatitis, chronic active hepatitis.  The first category of asymptomatic HBsAg carriers should be followed up medically, and liver function should be rechecked every 3 months in order to know whether there is liver damage in a timely manner, and if there is liver damage, it should be treated in a timely manner.  The second category of asymptomatic HBsAg carriers can work, study and labor as usual, and most of them have a good prognosis, and after a period of time, with the improvement of the body’s autoimmune status can naturally turn negative.  The third group of asymptomatic HBsAg carriers should be treated as current patients and treated in a timely manner after the liver is confirmed to have pathological damage.  Asymptomatic HBsAg carriers are not “healthy” in the true sense of the word, these people have the virus in their bodies and have the possibility of replicating or infecting others, so they should not engage in food service and childcare work. The patient should not mix toiletries with others. Women should also pay attention to menstrual hygiene to prevent menstrual blood from contaminating daily necessities.  The current medical treatment principles for asymptomatic HBsAg carriers are mainly three: 1, protection of the liver: absolute abstinence from alcohol, avoid overwork, maintain a relaxed mood, reasonable nutrition, regular review of hepatitis B virus markers and liver function, if necessary, you can take ascorbic acid, Pogam Vigilance powder to enhance the body’s resistance and strengthen liver nutrition, avoid blind medication. 2, anti-hepatitis B virus treatment: under the guidance of a specialist in the use of drugs The company’s main business is to promote the development of the company’s products and services. Asymptomatic HBsAg carriers can use 0.2% 84 disinfectant solution for washing (20 minutes), and dishes can be disinfected or separated for use by steaming for 30 minutes.  In conclusion, hepatitis B virus carriers generally regress well, with a small percentage turning negative spontaneously; most have a persistent and stable lifelong hepatitis B virus carrier status (about half of them show mild pathological changes in the liver, which is a relatively stable state of low response to persistent hepatitis B virus infection and requires treatment.) ; but about 3% can develop hepatitis and are also much more likely to develop liver cancer than non-carriers.
