1, the common mode of transmission of hepatitis A.
1, daily contact and communication
This is the main mode of transmission of hepatitis A, also called indirect transmission. Infection is mainly caused by oral administration of contaminated food such as hands, utensils, utensils and toys contaminated by hepatitis A virus.
In recent years, it has been found that many patients with hepatitis A have the bad habit of long nails. Do not pay attention to hygiene when nails grow out. They count money with long nails infected with hepatitis A virus, exploit peels, scrape teeth with toothpicks and eat food. And it is easy to bring pathogens into the mouth and infect hepatitis A virus.
2. Water transmission
This is the main mode of transmission leading to the outbreak of hepatitis A, which mostly occurs after heavy rain and rainy season. The patient's feces, saliva, vomit and other excreta pollute the surrounding environment, especially the water source. In rural areas with poor sanitation, people often use well water, river water or pond water because there is no running water facilities. When the body's resistance is weakened and polluted water is drunk, it is easy to cause infection and outbreak.
3. Food transmission
It is mainly caused by eating contaminated food, especially uncooked fruits and vegetables, or semi-cooked shellfish such as oysters, clams, clams, etc. Flies and cockroaches are also important vectors of the disease.
2. Don't rely too much on drugs for treatment.
Experts pointed out that hepatitis A is a self-limiting disease, and excessive dependence on drugs is not good for health. Patients with hepatitis A need to follow the doctor's advice, do not need to use too many drugs, there is no need to use antiviral drugs, mainly rest and support therapy.

6, oral Chinese medicine decoction effect is also good, such as dandelion, Prunella vulgaris, Radix Isatidis, honeysuckle and so on.
7. In addition, it should be noted that in the early stage of acute hepatitis A, symptoms such as chills, fever, muscle aches, general weakness, loss of appetite, aversion to oil, nausea and vomiting, and even diarrhea often occur, which is easily misdiagnosed as a cold or acute gastroenteritis.
