Please help is needed here. I have to know what the signs of viralhepatitis are. My daughter just came back from camping and I believe she ate something contaminated there. Since she came she suffers from headache, muscle aches and nausea. I believe she has viral hepatitis.
If she ate contaminated food it is possible that she infected herself with hep A. Some people with viral hepatitis have no signs of the infection, but these signs might occur: low grade fever, headache, muscle aches, loss of appetite, nausea, pain in the stomach. Hep A usually gets better on own and almost everyone who gets hepatitis A gets better. However, we don’t know for sure what is wrong with her, so it is better to see a doctor.
