Hepatitis C is a highly contagious disease. There are many patients suffering from hepatitis C now. In the early stage of the disease, due to lack of understanding of the symptoms of the disease, patients delay timely treatment of hepatitis C, which worsens the patients' condition. Therefore, people must have an understanding of the symptoms of hepatitis C so that they can detect the disease in time. So, what are the common symptoms of hepatitis C? Let's take a look.

What are the common symptoms of hepatitis C?

1. Acute hepatitis C: Acute hepatitis C in adults is relatively mild. Most cases are acute non-icteric hepatitis with elevated ALT levels. A few cases are acute icteric hepatitis with mild or moderate jaundice. Symptoms such as nausea, loss of appetite, general weakness, yellow urine and yellow eyes may occur. HCV infection alone rarely causes liver failure. Under natural conditions, only a small number of patients can spontaneously clear HCV and achieve recovery. Without antiviral treatment intervention, most patients will develop chronic hepatitis C. After children are acutely infected with hepatitis C virus, 50% can spontaneously clear HCV.

2. Chronic hepatitis C: The symptoms are mild and manifest as common symptoms of hepatitis, such as fatigue, poor appetite, abdominal distension, etc. There may also be no subjective symptoms. The ALT test results fluctuated repeatedly, and the hcvrna remained positive. One-third of patients with chronic HCV infection have normal liver function, persistently positive anti-HCV and HCVRNA, and liver biopsy may show signs of chronic hepatitis and even cirrhosis.

After reading the above introduction to the common symptoms of hepatitis C, do you think that hepatitis C is indeed worthy of our attention and we should remember the specific symptoms of hepatitis C? If similar symptoms occur, be sure to go to the hospital for diagnosis and active treatment. I hope everyone does not think that hepatitis C will not cause harm just because they are unfamiliar with it or have never heard of it.
