1. Typical symptoms of hepatitis B
1. Lack of physical strength: prone to fatigue, unable to maintain energy, etc. On the one hand, the factors that cause hepatitis B symptoms may be abnormal liver function, reduced meal intake, impaired food digestion and absorption, and insufficient nutrient intake. On the other hand, the systemic symptoms of hepatitis B virus occur due to inflammation and increased consumption. The ingested substances are damaged due to abnormal liver function and cannot be fully metabolized to meet the body's requirements.
2. Skin lesions: 65% of patients will develop various rashes. The most common ones are acne rash and telangiectasia, followed by measles, macules, hemorrhagic purpura, and skin rashes. Itching etc.
3. Fever: In subacute chronic hepatitis B, more than half of the patients have low fever or mild to moderate fever in the early stage of the disease.

The factors causing weight loss are: reduced diet after the onset of the disease, impaired digestion and absorption, impaired production of protein, vitamins, fat, etc., increased metabolism, and overall consumption.

5. Bone, joint and muscle pain: 40% of patients suffer from joint pain in the early stage of acute hepatitis. The muscles around the large bones and joints are often sore and tender. 59.5% of patients with chronic liver disease have joint pain. Bones and joints of all sizes can be affected.

You can eat some seafood reasonably to supplement vitamins and promote the repair of liver cells. Seafood contains relatively large amounts of unsaturated fatty acids, which can effectively prevent arteriosclerosis, and seafood also has anti-cancer and anti-tumor effects. Therefore, patients with liver cirrhosis can reduce the risk of early liver cancer by eating some seafood in moderation. However, patients with the following three types of liver cirrhosis are prohibited from eating seafood:
1. Those with bleeding tendencies and coagulation disorders
Because some seafood contains a relatively large amount of 25-sacpentaenoic acid and a relatively large amount of 22-sacahexaenoic acid, eating a lot of seafood will reduce the coagulation of blood cells and increase the coagulation time. Therefore, seafood is very harmful to patients with liver cirrhosis who have a tendency to bleed. Such patients with liver cirrhosis should avoid eating seafood.
2. Severe symptoms of late-stage liver cirrhosis or signs of hepatic coma
Seafood is an important source of high-quality animal protein, which can supplement protein for the patient's body, but the liver Patients with end-stage cirrhosis or those with signs of hepatic coma are best not to eat seafood, because the protein in seafood can cause or aggravate the symptoms of hepatic coma.
3. Accompanied by upper gastrointestinal tract varicose
Most seafood has a hard shell and bone hyperplasia. If the bite is not broken, the capillaries will be punctured, which may cause When internal bleeding occurs in the upper gastrointestinal tract, the body of a patient with liver cirrhosis is more sensitive. If such a serious symptom occurs at this time, it is very likely to seriously affect the patient's life. Therefore, patients with cirrhosis of the upper gastrointestinal tract cannot eat seafood to avoid the risk of accidents.
