There are different hepatitis viruses:
Hepatitis A,B,C,D,etc.
Viral Hepatitis is only one of many causes of
Hepatitis (inflammation of the liver cells)...there are
many other causes: alcohol consumption,
medication toxification, mushroom poisoning,
chemical exposure and more.
When they state about it be viral, it means that
a virus has entered the body and is using the
liver cells to replicate itself.
I'm going to give you links to learn more about

scar tissue formation inside the liver.
