Early symptoms of hepatitis

Hepatitis is a common and frequently occurring disease in life and is generally transmitted through contact. Nowadays, the incidence of hepatitis is becoming younger and younger, which is actually inseparable from the unhealthy lifestyle of young people. Staying up late, eating junk food, and being under too much stress are all "killers" that put a heavy burden on the liver. Let's take a look at the early symptoms of hepatitis to help diagnose and treat the disease.

Symptoms of Hepatitis B

Hepatitis B is divided into acute hepatitis B and chronic hepatitis B. Generally, acute hepatitis B is the most common. Its symptoms are fatigue, loss of appetite, and sometimes liver pain. Examination can reveal abnormalities in liver function. The symptoms of chronic hepatitis B do not have any typical features. Generally, people experience fatigue and possibly liver pain. However, chronic disease is not easy to detect and is often only discovered during physical examinations.

Symptoms of Hepatitis C

The main symptoms are fatigue and low fever, and more patients do not have any symptoms. Chronic hepatitis C patients may not have any obvious symptoms for 20 years, but they feel weak and tired, and this feeling of fatigue will persist even after sufficient rest.

Symptoms of Hepatitis E

Hepatitis E is generally divided into four types according to clinical manifestations: acute icteric type, acute non-icteric type, acute severe type and cholestatic type. In addition to fatigue, loss of appetite, nausea and vomiting, patients with acute jaundice also have yellow urine, yellow eyes, yellow skin, and elevated blood bilirubin. The symptoms of severe hepatitis are more serious, and may even cause life-threatening complications such as hepatic coma and disseminated intravascular coagulation.
