A member asked:

What.does hbv dna positive mean?chronic or acute

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Either: Hepatitis b virus dna means that there is presence of the virus in your body. This can be found in both acute and chronic hepatitis. If your liver enzymes are elevated in low numbers or normal and you have no symptoms such as jaundice, nausea/vomiting, changes in stool/urine color and a positive test, most likely hbv is chronic. High liver function tests, bilirubin counts + symptoms = acute hbv.
