Recognizing a hepatitis A symptom

Hepatitis A has an average incubation period of 28 days, but a hepatitis symptom can appear anywhere from 15-50 after the hepatitis A virus enters the body.

Hepatitis A symptoms will appear in adults more often than children.

70 percent of children under 6 years of age who are infected with the hepatitis A virus will be asymptomatic. If symptoms appear, the illness will usually last less than two months.

Symptoms of hepatitis A usually appear abruptly.

Typical hepatitis A symptoms include

abdominal pain
anorexia
dark urine
diarrhea
fatigue
fever
jaundice
loss of appetite
malaise
nausea

Approximately one person in ten who is infected with the hepatitis A virus will have symptoms over a six-to-nine month period. The symptoms will sometimes come and go, or relapse.
