Hepatitis is a disease of the liver. There are many types of hepatitis and it would be very long to explain all. From drugs, to viruses, to parasites, copper, iron, autoimmunity, and so. Viral hepatitis are produced by different viruses called A, B, C, D, E. Each damages the liver in different ways and you get them in different ways also (digestive, sexual, etc).
