If i have a strong immune system it means my liver is strong?

no, if hbv is cronic it is best to have a weaker immune system because it s immune system to make liver damage and not the hbv virus

how should i protect my liver?

healthy life, fresh food, very little meat, no fats, plently of vegetables, vitamins especially supplements with vit d3, yogurt, fish oil or even better fish

im just 22 and im a hepatitis B positive and i dont even know we're i get this.

at birth, just have a healthy life and check liver damage by fibroscan and start tenofovir only when fibroscan more than 8kpa
in ur country doctors are not updated and there is scum everywhere, look for the best research center in your country and just let researchers follow you, you can t trust doctors in your country because the country itself is corrupted by use of hbv drug banned in the rest of the world (revovir)

hbvdna quantitative is useless off therapy and have almost no meaning.24iu/ml is low and may correlate with little liver damage but this is not a test to see liver damage, to see if virus is replicating or to see if infection is cronic

test to confirm if cronic is:
hbcab igm if positive not cronic, if negative cronic

test to show inactive virus and immune clearance
hbsag quntitative in iu/ml
