Hi & Welcome.
Incomplete data like details of liver function tests and serological tests for viral hepatitis, etc.

The result of the given lab tests is suggestive of viral B hepatitis.
Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) is an indicator of active infection whereas Hepatitis B e antibody (HBeAb) is an indicative of active replication of the virus in the liver.

I advise you to consult a gastroenterologist for further evaluation and certain lab tests, an abdominal ultrasound and depending upon the result possible treatment with antiviral medications.

Hope this answers your query.
