Hepatitis B is a category of the Hepatitis virus that primarily affects the liver and can cause liver damage and inflammation. The infection can significantly increase the risk of liver failure. Without timely treatment, it can lead to life-threatening complications.
Hepatitis B infection is of two types - chronic and acute. Chronic Hepatitis B infection is a condition where infection lasts for more than six months and can lead to liver cirrhosis and liver cancer. Similarly, the acute infection does not last long, and you can recover from the symptoms shortly.
Adults might fully recover from Hepatitis B, whereas children and infants might experience chronic Hepatitis B infection. It has many symptoms which you need to be aware of, consisting of:
- Fatigue and weakness
- Abdominal pain
- Vomiting and nausea
- Loose stool
- Constipation
- Jaundice
- Mild fever
- Brown coloured urine
The symptoms usually appear after 1-4 months of Hepatitis B infection. However, if a young child gets infected, they might not observe these symptoms. You need to consult a doctor if you experience these Hepatitis B symptoms before the conditions worsen.
Hepatitis B spreads due to the sharing of infected needles and syringes. Accidental contact with infected blood also puts anyone at risk of developing the disease. Moreover, the infection can spread during sexual intercourse with an infected individual. Pregnant mothers having Hepatitis B infection can pass it on to their children during childbirth. In most cases, newborn babies are vaccinated to avoid this dangerous infection.
That's why proper diagnosis is essential to address the Hepatitis B infection. One of the most popular procedures for Hepatitis B diagnosis is the Hepatitis B Virus Genotyping Test. Doctors conduct this test to analyse the Hepatitis B symptoms and the associated complications.
In this test, the doctor will analyse the blood sample to classify the virus into nine categories. These include types A to I. They do it by applying sequence analysis to the DNA polymerase gene.
Moreover, the HBV genotype assays are used for understanding the basal core promotor's sequence polymorphisms. This analysis enables doctors to diagnose Hepatitis B and prepare a treatment plan. It also assists them in evaluating how the patient is responding to the treatment.
The Hepatitis B Virus Genotyping Test is utilized for managing patients who have chronic symptoms of viral infection. In addition, the test will be applicable if you are undergoing antiviral therapy. Based on the test results, the doctor might recommend you other medications or suggest new treatment strategies.
It is vital that you talk about the medication you are currently taking before opting for the Hepatitis B Virus Genotyping Test. Moreover, talk about the various Hepatitis B symptoms you have experienced to aid the doctor in conducting the test effectively.
