Joint Pains and Skin Rashes |
Joint Pain, skin
rashes are common peripheral symptoms for hepatitis
patients. Some people also experience positive
reactions to ANA, AMA, and RA factors. These extra-liver
manifestations of immuno-pathic damages caused by HCV
infections have a common pathology, autoimmunity, or
when the body's own immune reactions act against healthy
tissue and cells, causing damage. The exact mechanisms
