How can hepatitis B patients prevent liver cancer?

Liver cancer, I believe many people are familiar with this disease. It is a very harmful disease, and now the disease is on the rise. Therefore, we need to know more about this disease. So, how can hepatitis B patients prevent the occurrence of liver cancer? Let's take a look at the experts' introduction below:

The risk of liver cancer in patients with hepatitis is higher than that of the normal population, especially for patients with hepatitis B and hepatitis C. Generally speaking, the occurrence of liver cancer is a multi-stage process with the combined action of multiple factors. For patients with hepatitis B, if hepatitis recurs and is not cured, cirrhosis may occur further. If some carcinogenic factors, such as heavy drinking, further aggravate liver damage, it is easy to cause liver cancer.
Therefore, hepatitis B patients should actively prevent liver cancer by starting from the following two aspects.
First, actively treat hepatitis B.
After being diagnosed with hepatitis B, you should actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment and never give up on yourself to avoid repeated attacks of hepatitis. For hepatitis B patients with abnormal liver function, they should actively receive antiviral treatment to suppress the virus to the lowest level, thereby blocking the occurrence of cirrhosis and preventing liver cancer.
Second, minimize the impact of other carcinogenic factors.
Clinically, there are many young liver cancer patients. After careful inquiry of their medical history, it is found that most of them have a history of heavy drinking for many years. Long-term drinking will aggravate liver damage, which is undoubtedly worse for hepatitis B patients and accelerates the pace of liver cancer. At the same time, hepatitis B patients should also pay attention to their daily diet and avoid overeating and eating too much meat and fish, because fatty liver is also a high-risk factor for liver cancer.
In addition, hepatitis B patients should maintain a healthy lifestyle, insist on exercising, strengthen their physical fitness, and improve their own immunity, which will also help reduce the risk of liver cancer.
