Hepatitis C<\/strong> is an infectious disease that is induced by the HCV or the Hepatitis C virus and this disease mainly affects the liver. The virus spreads through body fluids or physical contact. Many of those affected, don\u2019t even know about it due to a lack of symptoms.<\/p>\n

THE CAUSE:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Hepatitis C is mainly spread through contact. You can get exposed to the virus through:<\/p>\n

* Multiple usages of injection needles in different people.<\/p>\n

* Having sexual intercourse without the usage of proper protection.<\/p>\n

* A mother while giving birth may pass it onto a child.<\/p>\n

* Unsanitized body piercing equipment might transfer the virus.<\/p>\n

Though kissing, hugging, breastfeeding, and other such activities are not the cause of spreading the virus.<\/p>\n

THE EFFECT:<\/strong><\/p>\n

* During the early stages, no symptoms occur, but, as time goes by, the situation worsens and eventually leads to cirrhosis.<\/p>\n

* The kidneys of the person suffering from Hepatitis C might fail.<\/p>\n

* A patient of this disease might bleed easily.<\/p>\n

* There are also cases of intense itching in the patients with Hepatitis C.<\/p>\n

* The veins on the skin become spider-like if one is contacted with this disease.<\/p>\n

* A patient can also experience blood loss through vomiting due to internal bleeding in the lower esophagus.<\/p>\n

* Patients could also experience problems like memory glitches and lapses and may have reduced brain functioning.<\/p>\n

* One might also suffer from building up of fluids in the abdominal cavity called ascites or in the legs, termed as edema.<\/p>\n

Take care of your hygiene and turn to a healthy and clean way of living. This would save you from many of the infectious diseases like Hepatitis C<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
