What is the difference between liver cancer and liver abscess

What is the difference between liver cancer and liver abscess?

There is a clear difference between liver abscess and liver cancer. Liver abscess is divided into bacterial liver abscess and amoebic liver abscess. The main clinical manifestations are fever, pain in the liver area, and liver enlargement.

In the case of liver abscess, there may be some liquid surface, and the thickness of the tumor wall is uneven and bumpy. The final diagnosis still needs to be made by imaging and puncture biopsy. Liver cancer refers to malignant tumors of the liver.

Can liver cancer be cured by taking Chinese medicine?

Traditional Chinese medicine cannot cure the disease. Taking traditional Chinese medicine cannot cure the disease. Surgery must be used as much as possible. If surgery is not possible, microwave ablation, interventional therapy, chemotherapy and radiotherapy, immunotherapy, targeted drug therapy, biological therapy, etc. can be used as a combined treatment method to control the growth, development and spread of the tumor. This allows you to survive with the tumor for a long time and prolong your life.

Generally, we can use Chinese medicine to treat liver cancer, but it can only play a conservative role and cannot completely cure it. If it is early liver cancer, surgery can be used for treatment, and the survival time can reach more than 5 to 10 years. However, if it is late liver cancer, it may accelerate the speed of death, and Chinese medicine can only prolong the survival time. Patients with liver cancer should consider the severity of the liver cancer and the pathological stage.
