Understanding HepA

Hepatitis A is a viral liver infection caused by the Hepatitis A virus (HAV). It is highly contagious and typically spreads through ingestion of contaminated food or water or direct contact with an infected person. Unlike other forms of hepatitis, Hepatitis A does not cause chronic liver disease, but it can cause severe symptoms and liver inflammation. The HepA vaccine is effective in preventing the infection.

Schedule an Appointment

If you observe these symptoms in your child and are concerned about Hepatitis A, it is important to seek a comprehensive evaluation from a healthcare professional. Scheduling an appointment with us can help in obtaining a proper diagnosis and developing an effective treatment plan to manage the condition and prevent the spread of the virus. Ensuring your child is vaccinated with the HepA vaccine is a key step in protecting them from this contagious liver infection.
