Jaundice hepatitis is a common disease that can threaten people's lives. After suffering from jaundice hepatitis, many people are most concerned about whether it is infectious. In this paper, the problem of whether jaundice hepatitis will be infectious is analyzed as follows.

Is jaundice contagious? Don't jump to conclusions

First: jaundice hepatitis is caused by hepatitis virus to destroy liver cells, liver tissue destruction and reconstruction, bile duct obstruction, resulting in the increase of conjugated bilirubin and unconjugated bilirubin in blood, resulting in skin, mucous membrane, eyeball sclera and other symptoms of yellowing. Whether jaundice hepatitis is infectious or not needs to be combined with the actual situation. Therefore, we can not jump to a conclusion.

Second: jaundice hepatitis, which means that the bilirubin in liver function exceeds the standard, some of which are infectious, some are not infectious. For example, hepatitis B, hepatitis C and other hepatitis caused by bilirubin rise, at this time there is infectious, if it is excessive drinking or drug poisoning caused by jaundice hepatitis, there is no infectious.

Third: as for the infectivity of icteric hepatitis, it depends on the transmission route of icteric hepatitis virus, the number of virus invading the body, the active replication of the virus and the length of the disease course.

matters needing attention

Whether jaundice hepatitis is infectious depends on the predisposing factors. During the period of illness, we should also pay attention to the supply of sufficient liquid to the body. Drinking more juice, rice soup, honey water, watermelon juice, etc. can accelerate the excretion of poison and ensure the normal metabolic function of the liver.
