Whether you can clear hepatitis depends on the type of hepatitis you have. Here's a breakdown:
- Hepatitis A: According to the reference, hepatitis A usually resolves without medications.
- Hepatitis B: The reference states there is no cure for hepatitis B, but treatments are available to reduce the risk of liver damage and cancer.
- Hepatitis C: The reference mentions that hepatitis B and C may sometimes last only a few weeks, and other times they become serious lifelong infections.
Hepatitis Type | Can it be cleared? | Treatment |
---|---|---|
Hepatitis A | Usually clears on its own. | No specific treatment is usually required. |
Hepatitis B | No cure, but can be managed. | Treatment aims to reduce the risk of liver damage and cancer. |
Hepatitis C | Sometimes clears on its own, sometimes becomes chronic. | Treatment exists to cure Hepatitis C. Talk to your doctor to see what the appropriate treatment is for you. |
In summary, while hepatitis A typically resolves without intervention and hepatitis B is not curable but can be managed, the outcomes for hepatitis C can vary.
