Hepatitis
Hepatitis is caused by a viral infection that affects the function of the liver. The liver becomes enlarged and tender and unable to filter out toxins or process certain nutrients. Symptoms of this problem include fever, nausea, weakness, vomiting, headache, loss of appetite, muscle aches, abdominal pain, and jaundice (yellowing of the skin). There are several different types of hepatitis, and all are contagious. Three of them are most common. Hepatitis A is spread through person to person contact, or contact with food, clothing, and other items. Hepatitis B is spread through infected blood, from contaminated needles and syringes, and sexual contact. Hepatitis C is also spread through infected blood.
