Namely, we prove that if $f$ is locally bounded from above at a point of $D$ and rationally $(h,d)$-convex then it is continuous and $(h,d)$-convex. Keywords: Convexity, approximate convexity, h-convexity, s-convexity, Bernstein-Doetsch theorem, regularity properties of generalized convex functions.
