A brief discussion on the specific clinical manifestations of early symptoms of liver cancer

Liver cancer is still relatively common in China, and the early symptoms of liver cancer are also very easy to detect, so the mortality rate is very high. Therefore, we must understand the early symptoms of liver cancer before we can detect and treat it in time. In fact, the cure rate of early liver cancer is still very high. The key is to achieve early detection and early treatment. Let's talk about the manifestations of early symptoms of liver cancer .

1. Pain in the liver area: Pain in the liver area is an early symptom of liver cancer in most patients. It is often caused by the rapid growth of the tumor, which increases the tension of the liver capsule, or the tumor involves the liver capsule. The pain is mostly located in the right ribs or under the xiphoid process. At the beginning, it is mostly intermittent or continuous dull pain or stabbing pain. The pain may be mild or severe or relieve itself within a period of time, or even disappear. The pain is often more obvious at night and sometimes requires analgesia.

2. Fever: Fever may also be an early symptom of liver cancer. The fever is generally around 37.5℃-38℃, with an irregular fever pattern, and is often not accompanied by chills. Fever is more common in the afternoon, and sometimes remittent high fever can also be seen. Fever may also be caused by tumor necrosis or its metabolites.

3. Weight loss and fatigue: often occur in the middle and late stages of liver cancer. It may be caused by tumor metabolites causing changes in the body's biochemical metabolism, coupled with reduced food intake. In severe cases, cachexia may occur.

4. Digestive tract symptoms: decreased appetite, upper abdominal fullness after meals, or even nausea, vomiting or diarrhea, which are also early symptoms of liver cancer. Digestive tract symptoms are often caused by pathological changes in the liver, resulting in increased pressure in the portal vein system and digestive tract dysfunction; or by enlarged tumors compressing or involving the stomach.

The early symptoms of liver cancer are generally not obvious, so when it is detected, it is usually in the middle or late stage. I hope that after we understand the early symptoms of liver cancer through the above introduction, we can go to a regular hospital for examination and treatment in time.
