2.Alcoholism is contraindicated.

Chinese wine culture has a long history, and the Chinese New Year also pays attention to eating and drinking. However, the main ingredient of wine is ethanol, which can be converted into acetaldehyde in the liver, and they have a direct damaging effect on the liver, causing liver cells to degenerate and necrosis. Hepatitis B patients have already had liver lesions, and alcohol consumption can be said to make matters worse, which can accelerate the evolution of the disease to liver cirrhosis and even liver cancer. Hepatitis B patients are forbidden to drink, abstinence from alcohol is unconditional and mandatory, liquor and beer are within the contraindication, and patients can drink and mineral water instead of alcohol at parties.

3.Fatigue is contraindicated.

Don't stay up late during the Chinese New Year. Overwork depletes a large amount of nutrients and oxygen, resulting in a significant reduction in liver energy**, weakening the liver's ability to resist disease, and the hepatitis B virus will spread rapidly, destroying liver function until irreversible lesions occur. When the condition of hepatitis B patients is stable, it is recommended to combine work and rest, exercise appropriately, rest appropriately, and do not feel fatigue, nausea, and low back pain during activities, and have a regular life and daily life, even if it is a holiday, do not easily break the good life rules; During the fluctuating period, it is best to stay in bed and recuperate**.

According to some statistics, irritable people are 6 times more likely to have coronary heart disease and 8 times more likely to suffer from liver disease. Hepatitis B patients must be open-minded, emotional, and optimistic, so as to alleviate the pain, promote the strengthening of the body's immune mechanism, and ultimately defeat the disease.

5.Missed medication is contraindicated.

Liver diseases, especially chronic hepatitis B, hepatitis C, cirrhosis and other liver diseases, generally recover slowly, and require long-term medication, especially antiviral drugs and drugs for cirrhosis and gastrointestinal bleeding must not be stopped, otherwise it will lead to serious consequences such as mild aggravation or **, severe gastrointestinal bleeding and severe hepatitis.
