Treatments+Hepatitis+A

Hepatitis A can be tested by blood and stool samples, but it is usually diagnosed by testing for different antibodies, specifically the **IgM antibody**. The IgM antibody will **only** appear in the bloodstream after there is a HAV infection. __[]

Unfortunately, there is **no cure** and no real treatment for Hepatitis A. However, HAV is a **mild** disease and not very severe, so most patients **recover on their own** within months. Those who do suffer severe conscequences usually have a weak immune system or other liver problems. When someone is recovering from Hepatitis A, it is important that they stay away from drugs. They should have a high-protein, no-fat diet and constantly drink water. Rest is also crucial to recovery. After a person fully recovers from HAV, it is most likely that he will be immune to the disease and never get it again.
