It might be due to too much of heat in the body and you can take more water and also you can go for massage which will help you to reduce the heat in the body. And also take foods which has less heat for eg. You can take butter milk, apply more oil in the head/hair, take more water content vegetables, take more anti oxidants in the food like fresh fruits, juices, fresh vegetables etc, avoid oil stuffy foods.

The HBV antibody tested will remain positive and it does not mean you have active infection . You only need to take care by not donating blood or sharing needles for injections

It's spread when people come in contact with the blood, open sores, or body fluids of someone who has the hepatitis b virus. It's serious, but if you get the disease as an adult, it shouldn't last a long time. Let's have a detailed discussion for better advice and healthy lifestyle.

Health Query

How long can I live with hep c? People with hepatitis c can live many years after diagnosis, but the range varies. A 2014 study showed that patients infected with hepatitis c virus died on average 15 years sooner than people who did not have the illness. With hepatitis c, the liver becomes seriously damaged due to inflammation. Tell me about this sir.
