Can you get hepatitis through urine?

Hello, I have a question, if someone has hepatitis and somehow comes into contact with their urine, can they get infected? If you have a scratch on your body. I'm talking about contact with the mop, e.g. wiping something off the floor, and then rinsing it. A: I had a wound. Such a dried on the finger.

Hepatitis B (hepatitis B) is a contagious disease, but it is not usually transmitted through contact with urine. The virus can be transmitted through contact with infectious blood, semen, vaginal secretions, and the saliva of an infected person.

In case of wounds or scratches on the skin, it is always advised to be cautious and avoid direct contact with the liquid bodies of other people, especially if there is a suspicion of infection with the hepatitis virus. In such situations, it is always a good idea to wash wounds and scratches with soap and water.

If you are concerned about this situation and suspect contact with infectious substances, it is best to consult your doctor, who can assess the risk of infection in your case and order appropriate tests if necessary.

We also encourage you to familiarize yourself with materials on similar topics:
