Hepatic encephalitis is a disease that affects the brain, which can lead to death
Hepatic encephalitis occurs in those who already have a chronic liver disease. In this disease, inflammation and damage to the brain occur, along with damage to the liver and kidneys.
There are many other conditions that can affect the brain and cause these conditions to become a cause of encephalitis. Hepatitis, a viral infection, is one of them. Another common cause is an allergic reaction to certain foods and substances that the body is not used to.
The symptoms of encephalitis often resemble other diseases, but do not always lead to any serious condition. Many people become confused, drowsy, disorientated, and lethargic, with sudden changes in their personality, mood, behavior, as well as memory. Patients sometimes develop seizures, coma, heart failure, kidney failure, and other serious complications. It is important for people to recognize these symptoms and seek medical attention if they seem to be symptoms of hepatitis or encephalitis.
A person suffering from a chronic liver disease may develop symptoms of hepatitis or encephalitis related disease, which can be caused by the same infection. Some of the symptoms of the hepatitis may include jaundice, fever, malaise, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, abdominal swelling, weight loss, muscle weakness, and jaundice. These symptoms can indicate the presence of hepatitis or encephalitis but do not mean that you have the disease.
Some symptoms of encephalitis are also similar, such as vomiting, headache, abdominal pain, dizziness, and fever
These symptoms, however, may indicate more serious conditions, such as severe bleeding in the brain, stroke, convulsions, or death. Symptoms may include depression, increased or decreased appetite, and confusion. You should get the help of a doctor if any of these symptoms persist, even if they seem like the flu symptoms. but be aware that there is a chance that these symptoms could be symptoms of a more serious condition, especially if a person has had a recent fever.
Some signs and symptoms of hepatitis, such as jaundice, fever, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, swollen legs, and mouth, and eyes, skin, abdominal swelling or bleeding in the intestines, increased urination, nausea, vomiting, weight loss, or swelling of the face, or extremities, skin rash, loss of appetite, fever, vomiting or fever, chills, seizures, loss of consciousness, and headaches, fatigue, shortness of breath, abdominal pain, bleeding, or swelling of the neck or legs, or pain in the mouth and eyes, pain or discomfort in the ears, sinus or throat, dizziness, lightheadedness, or fainting, abdominal pain or headache, or blurred vision, seizures, weakness or changes in vision, and bleeding of the scalp, may indicate other serious liver or renal diseases, such as cholestasis, gallstones, and bile ducts, so you should get checked out immediately if any of these symptoms appear. Hepatitis may also cause jaundice, which is when the skin turns yellow or green. If you have any of these symptoms, see your doctor immediately to make sure that there is no underlying condition.
Once you have been diagnosed with a liver or kidney disease, your doctor will order blood tests to determine the cause of your symptoms. Liver function tests, like antibody tests and urine tests may provide a good idea of what your problem is and whether it is caused by a chronic liver disease or by some virus or parasite.
Liver or kidney disease can cause serious liver or kidney failure. Hepatitis may also lead to liver cancer and if left untreated, it may lead to cirrhosis of the liver, kidney failure, or liver cancer. If you or someone you know has experienced any of the above mentioned symptoms of liver or kidney problems, you should talk to your doctor right away to get yourself checked out and treated.
