Hepatitis refers to inflammation of the liver, and it can be caused by
various factors, including viruses, drugs, toxins, and autoimmune
disorders. Viral hepatitis specifically refers to liver inflammation
caused by viruses. There are several types of viral hepatitis, the most
common being hepatitis A, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, hepatitis D, and
hepatitis E.
Chronic hepatitis, particularly hepatitis B and C, can lead to serious
complications such as cirrhosis (scarring of the liver), liver failure,
and hepatocellular carcinoma (liver cancer). Early diagnosis and
appropriate medical management are crucial for preventing these
complications. If you suspect you have hepatitis or are at risk, it is
important to seek medical advice for testing and appropriate care.
