Hepatitis A
Alternate Names : Hepatovirus Infection
How is the infection diagnosed?
The healthcare provider may suspect hepatitis A after doing a physical
examination and checking liver function
tests. Another blood test, often drawn at the same time as the liver function tests, can confirm that hepatitis A is the cause of the symptoms.
Hepatitis A recurs in about 10% of people. This results in symptoms that come and go, along with abnormal liver
function tests over
several weeks to a few months.
