Everyday Health

There are a variety of Hepatitis diseases, including A, B, C, D, E, F and G, although A, B and C are the most common, as well as alcoholic hepatitis and autoimmune hepatitis. And while each one differs slightly from the other, what they all have in common is that they affect the liver and its vital functions. Because of this, all these various varieties of hepatitis cause damage to the live, elevating the enzymes as a result. Some symptoms of hepatitis include fever, nausea, fatigue, abdominal pain, and jaundice, which is the yellowing of the skin and white of the eyes. While most types of hepatitis are treatable, others – like hepatitis C – are chronic and require lifelong treatment. Alcoholic hepatitis and autoimmune hepatitis may be reversable, depending on how severe the case may be.
