Myth №1: Hepatitis – Disease of Narkomanov
No. The most accurate behavior does not give a 100% guarantee that you do not get infected. Accident may still tide even in the dentist's office. Although addicts, of course, enter the risk group.
Myth number 2: hepatitis can be infected through household items, so it is necessary to reduce contacts with patients
No. No danger of infection is not kisses, handshakes, sharing dishes, clothes, even toothbrushes. The virus is transmitted either through blood when using non-sterile syringes and other cruel-cutting items, or sexually. Sometimes hepatitis C virus can move from mother to child during pregnancy and childbirth. This happens if a pregnant woman transfers the disease in an acute form or her exacerbation of chronic hepatitis with.
Myth number 3: hepatitis with incurable
Not necessary. Only 80% of the infected hepatitis C virus receive a chronic form, which over time can lead to the formation of a liver cirrhosis and in some cases to liver cancer. The remaining 20% of the diseased immune system for not known until science reasons itself destroys the virus. But the development of the disease is directly dependent on the observance of the diet and the right lifestyle – There is a refusal to alcohol and smoking, a decrease in physical and psychological loads and, of course, the fulfillment of all medical purposes – up to periodic hospitalization. By the way, it is alcohol that stimulates the reproduction of the hepatitis C virus and reduces the therapeutic effects of drugs in chronic hepatitis.
Myth №4: Dear preparations easily healed hepatitis with
I would like to! But actually hepatitis treatment – difficult process. The course lasts about a year and may be accompanied by a flu-like state, temperature and depression.
Myth number 5: If no drugs are prescribed, it means that the patient is doomed
No. All up to the opposite. If the patient has a stable amount of blood virus and do not occur dangerous changes in the liver, treatment is not necessary at all. The reproduction of the virus is the reproduction of the virus.
Myth number 6: The worst – Not the changes that occur in the liver, and the level of virus in the blood
No. There are patients with high virus content without liver pathology and patients who have a slight amount of viruses, but with a strongly affected liver. Competent treatment can improve the function of the liver even if there is a virus.
Myth number 7: Since hepatitis C is transmitted through blood, the virus can «strangle» blood irradiation
No, it is a little efficient method. Blood virus only comes to the liver, there he remains to live and destroys her.
Myth number 8: drugs do not help well, it is better to be treated with biodevices
No. Bioduds often help, but they cannot be considered the main method. They only complement the main treatment.
