When hepatitis virus damages a liver cell, scar tissue is formed and the cell can no longer function. With fewer healthy liver cells to carry on their important work many body functions can be affected. The fist sign may be only fatigue. However, other problems related to digesting food, resisting infections, storing energy, prolonged bleeding or riddling the body of harmful toxins found in alcohol, drugs, bug sprays, and other pollutants may occur. When the liver is severely damaged the body may retain fluid and mental confusion may occur.
