What do drugs, alcohol, unprotected sex (performed without the use
of a condom), tattoos, and body piercings have in general? They're all things
your parents might lecture you about avoiding, but there's another connection:
They can all lead to a liver situation called Hepatitis.
What Is Hepatitis?
The
liver is one of the body's powerhouses. It forms supplements and metabolizes
solutions. The liver likewise clears the group of lethal waste items.
The
word hepatitis implies an irritation of the liver. It can be brought about by
one of numerous things — including a bacterial contamination, liver harm
created by a poison (toxin), and even an assault on the liver by the body's own
invulnerable framework. Then again, hepatitis more often than not is brought
about by an infection. The three most normal hepatitis infections are Hepatitis
A, Hepatitis B, or Hepatitis C. Two different sorts of hepatitis
infection, D and E, are uncommon in the United States.
A
few hepatitis infections can change. That can make them hard for the body to
battle in light of the fact that they change after some time. Sometimes,
hepatitis B or C can annihilate the liver. The patient then will require a
liver transplant to survive, an alternative that is not generally accessible or
fruitful.
