Hepatitis A, B and C C

Flu or redness in skin after vaccination is nothing to fear, but if there is any respiratory problem or heart beats at abnormal pace either too fast or too low, consultation to doctor becomes necessary. However, according to doctors vaccination against Hepatitis B has no side effect.

Now we will discuss in detail the function of liver, its significance in our body and why its health is so necessary.

The liver is an important organ of the body, which is located in the upper right-hand portion of the abdomen beneath the diaphragm. It is the most vital organ which contains a lot of blood and weighs approximately 1400-1600 gm. More than 500 vital functions have been identified with the liver. Some of them include the following:

• Stores vitamins, minerals, iron and sugar
• Filters blood and detoxifies it
• Controls cholesterol as well as chemical or drug mix up with blood flow
• Transforms food into chemicals essentialfor energy
• Keeps hormones balanced
• Produces various types of protein and regulates blood clotting
• Excretes waste products through intestine

Liver inflammation is called Hepatitis. Virus is a little bacterium which may harm organs of body if it comes in connection. The main cause of liver damage are viruses of multiple types, named as A, B, C, D and E. Virus A and E cause common short-term Hepatitis, while virus B and C are dangerous and cause short-term Hepatitis but in some cases lead to chronic Hepatitis which gradually causes liver shrink, called Cirrhosis. Cirrhosis lasts 15-30 years. Hepatitis C may be termed silent virus because the person infected with it looks healthy after the diagnosis of the symptoms. There is no vaccine against Hepatitis C, while it is available against B. We all should get tested for Hepatitis B and receive vaccination against it, because as per the statistics virus of Hepatitis C exists nationwide in seventeen millions people. People infected with Hepatitis C suffer from severe fatigue and debility. Such patients should avoid all alcoholic beverages. There are two most complex problems in Hepatitis C; Cirrhosis and liver cancer whose treatment is only liver transplantation. Some of the symptoms are listed below:

• Weight loss
• Yellowness in face
• Abdominal swelling due to fluid
• Vomiting blood
• Drowsiness
• Halitosis
• Sleep disorders
• Hand tremor
• Swelling of legs and the whole body
• Warm palm
• Erythema
• Profuse perspiration

There are many things that get you infected with Hepatitis virus. Most of the people do not have any idea how they have caught this disease. Nothing to worry about how you caught it, the only thing necessary is to combat the disease. Keep in mind, the virus does not transmit by sneezing, coughing, kissing, using utensil or washroom shared with infected person and normal daily interaction. Generally it transmits when a person comes in connection with infected blood. Also it transmits through the following:

• Infected blood transfusion
• Using infected syringe or needle
• Using dentist’s infected tools
• Getting a tattoo or having earlobes pierced with infected needle
• Sexual contact (causing blood mixup)
• Sexual contact during menstruation period
• Using razor or toothbrush of infected person
• Mother to child in rare cases

Hepatitis is curable for sure, provided timely taken care of. So it is very necessary to take all precautionary measures, and if still you catch infection, immediate action against it is indispensible.

Here I see necessary to suggest that you should avoid allopathic medicines for Hepatitis treatment as long as possible. Hepatitis is not a new disease. Human being has been suffering from it since ancient time. Luminaries of Unanipathy prescribed successful and effective treatment of the disease after thorough research and its results have greatly astonished the modern allopathic researchers. In case you recognise any symptom of the disease in your body, prefer Unani treatment to the most possible extent in order to avoid Cirrhosis and liver cancer. Otherwise, liver transplantation is the only choice left. To be noted that only reliable and expert doctors should be consulted for complete treatment of the disease. Diet prevention is not a bar. In some people immunity itself kills this disease. Interferon is a type of protein helpful in fighting against the diseases caused by virus. As body alone cannot produce that much protein it is necessary to take Interferon as drug. Get you tested for Hepatitis B and C and must vaccinate you and your family. Practice religion in full, adopt a cautious approach in life, and be limited to your wife.
