Hepatitis C – no symptoms? How does this work?

by Symptom Advice on September 4, 2011

How is it that with Hepatitis C, some cases are asymptomatic? if inflammation is occurring, then shouldn't something be happening to the body as a result? What's the science behind this?
Thanks in advance

Most people who were recently infected with hepatitis C do not have symptoms. about 10% have jaundice that gets better. Of people who get infected with HCV, most develop chronic HCV infection. usually there are no symptoms.
The following tests are done to identify and monitor liver damage from hepatitis C:
* Albumin level
* Liver function tests
* Prothrombin time
