Is Hepatitis E still contagious after being cured?

The thing people fear most in life is getting sick, especially suffering from medical diseases. Because although internal medical diseases such as liver disease and heart disease do not develop as rapidly as surgical diseases, they are more threatening than surgical diseases and will cause patients to suffer more pain. Hepatitis E is a liver disease that is transmitted through the digestive tract and is somewhat contagious. One issue that many patients are concerned about is whether hepatitis E can still be contagious after being cured. So, is hepatitis E still contagious after being cured?

1. Hepatitis E is generally easy to cure. If liver function is normal and viral DNA is negative for more than half a year, it is generally considered cured.

2. Hepatitis E is an acute viral hepatitis. The transaminase level may be very high when the disease occurs, but it is curable and will not be contagious after recovery. However, the disease is contagious during the illness period, so just pay attention to protection and there will be no other problems.

3. Hepatitis E is a type of viral hepatitis, which is contagious and mainly transmitted through fecal-oral transmission. Blood transfusion and close contact in daily life can also cause the spread of hepatitis E. Therefore, in daily life, you must pay attention to personal hygiene and diet, and try not to eat seafood such as sashimi, or grilled lamb skewers and other meats. To prevent hepatitis E, you must isolate and treat the patients, and all the patients' belongings must be handled. The disease is usually self-limited and the prognosis is good. Typical cases can last 1 to 4 weeks. A small number of patients may have a longer course of illness, accompanied by cholestasis (cholestatic hepatitis), persistent jaundice and obvious skin itching. The jaundice will disappear on its own after 2 to 6 months. Self-limiting means that the disease will gradually improve without treatment. But it is still recommended to seek medical attention. If it is cured, you can prevent recurrence by paying attention to some of the transmission routes of hepatitis E mentioned above.
