Besides, to observe some commonly herbs used to heal chronic viral Hepatitis B, see whether they have positive impact on chronic viral Hepatitis B.Results:There are many researches and studies stated that pathogenic of dampness is highly related to chronic viral Hepatitis B, involving spleen, stomach, liver and gallbladder. Pathogenic heat and dampness is the cause of chronic viral Hepatitis B, interior heat and dampness body situation aggregates to it.
