Hepatitis C is a virus that causes liver inflammation, passed through exposure to blood from an infected person. Symptoms, including jaundice (yellowing of the skin and eyes), fatigue, and stomach pain, may not be present and the infection undetected. Years after the infection has caused permanent liver damage, symptoms might include bleeding easily, confusion, leg swelling and more.
