About Hepatitis test

Who should get tested for hepatitis?

Anyone who has engaged in risky behaviors such as unprotected sex, sharing needles, or has been exposed to contaminated blood should get tested for hepatitis. This includes individuals who have traveled to areas with high rates of hepatitis, those who have been in close contact with a person diagnosed with hepatitis, and healthcare workers. Particularly in Etowah, TN, and surrounding cities like Englewood, Athens, Riceville, Benton, and Calhoun, testing is encouraged due to the prevalence of hepatitis.

Importance of getting tested

Getting tested for hepatitis is crucial as it can lead to serious health problems like liver disease and cancer if left untreated. Early detection can help prevent these complications and allow for effective treatment. According to the CDC, an estimated 2.4 million people in the United States are living with hepatitis C, many of whom are unaware of their infection. Therefore, testing is the first step towards managing this disease.

Hepatitis testing options in Etowah, TN:

Urgent care and walk-in clinics

There are several urgent care and walk-in clinics in and around Etowah, TN, where you can get tested for hepatitis. Highly-rated AFC Urgent Care in Athens, TN, and Cleveland, TN, offer hepatitis testing services. You can book same-day and next-day testing appointments at each through Solv’s website and mobile app.

Primary care providers

Your primary care provider is another excellent resource for hepatitis testing. If you don't have one, Solv can help you find a trusted healthcare provider in your area.

Free STD testing and community health centers

Community health centers in McMinn County offer free or low-cost hepatitis testing. These centers are a great resource for those without insurance or those who cannot afford the cost of testing.

At-home testing

At-home testing kits for hepatitis are also available. These kits provide privacy and convenience, allowing you to take the test at your own convenience and receive results via mail or online.

Prevalence of hepatitis in Etowah

While specific data for Etowah is not readily available, McMinn County, where Etowah is located, has seen a rise in hepatitis cases in recent years. This trend mirrors the national increase in hepatitis cases, emphasizing the importance of getting tested.

Risk factors related to hepatitis in Etowah

Risk factors for hepatitis in Etowah include unprotected sex, drug use, and close contact with someone who has the disease. Additionally, Etowah's proximity to cities with higher rates of hepatitis, such as Athens and Cleveland, may also contribute to the risk.

Other STDs in Etowah

In addition to hepatitis, other STDs such as gonorrhea, chlamydia, HIV, and syphilis are also prevalent in Etowah. These diseases share similar risk factors with hepatitis, making regular testing crucial for those at risk.
