BANGKOK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Vejthani Hospital Bangkok offers the diagnosis and treatment of gastrointestinal diseases and liver disease through the expertise team of specialists and nurses at Gastroenterology and Hepatology Center.
Liver is a vital organ of the body. It has a wide range of functions including detoxification, protein synthesis and production of bio-chemicals necessary for digestion.
The liver supports almost every organ in the body and is vital for survival. Because of its strategic location and multidimensional functions, the liver is also prone to many diseases such as Hepatitis A, B, C, D and E which also leads to Liver Cancer.
Hepatitis is the inflammation of the liver. Hepatitis may be caused by a virus or a toxin such as alcohol, TB medications, regular intake of alcohol, eating half cooked foods, etc. Acute infection with hepatitis B usually does not require treatment. In rare cases, however, the infection may cause life-threatening liver failure. Patients with liver failure due to acute hepatitis B should be evaluated for liver transplantation. And for Chronic Infection the goal of treatment is to reduce the risk of complications including cirrhosis and liver failure. However, it takes decades for complications to occur, which makes it difficult to study the effect of medications.
The vaccine has a course of two to three (2–3) vaccine injections, the second injection at least one month after the first dose and the third injection being administered six months after the first dose. The first and second dose offer complete protection. The final injection (second or third depending on the number of vaccines being administered) is to prolong the protection against the hepatitis B virus. Infection with hepatitis virus can cause an unpleasant illness, but most people fully recover. Symptoms include flu-like symptoms and jaundice which then gradually clear without treatment. Serious problems are rare. Good personal hygiene like washing hands after going to the toilet helps to prevent spreading the virus to others.
