What is the cause of pain in the liver area after liver cancer surgery?

Pain in the liver area after liver cancer surgery is considered to be related to improper posture, surgical trauma, wound infection and other reasons.

1. Improper posture: After liver cancer surgery, patients should pay attention to bed rest. If the position changes improperly, it may affect the blood supply to the wound, causing symptoms such as wound pain and bleeding. It is recommended that patients develop a good lying posture after surgery to prevent the wound from being compressed.

2. Surgical trauma: Liver cancer surgery is a traumatic surgery, which may cause local itching, pain, scarring and other symptoms during the period of local tissue recovery or granulation growth. Patients are advised to strengthen the hygiene care of the surgical site in daily life, actively cooperate with doctors to change wound dressings, and improve their own discomfort symptoms.

3. Wound infection: If the wound is not properly cared for after surgery, bacteria may multiply around the wound, which may cause symptoms such as redness, swelling, pain, and purulent secretions. If it is related to factors such as wound infection, you should actively cooperate with the doctor to debride the wound and take oral ampicillin capsules, amoxicillin capsules and other drugs for anti-infection treatment according to the doctor's advice.

In addition to the above reasons, recurrence of liver cancer after surgery may also cause symptoms. If the pain is severe, you should actively cooperate with the doctor to find out the cause, avoid taking medication for pain relief without authorization, and prevent symptoms from occurring due to medication.
