Early symptoms of liver cancer are hidden

With the development of modern medicine, liver cancer can be detected at an early stage, and the cure rate can reach more than 80%. Therefore, high-risk groups must have regular checkups and seek medical treatment in a timely manner if symptoms are found.

The early symptoms of liver cancer are usually very hidden. Many patients have almost no symptoms in the early stage. Once obvious liver cancer symptoms appear, it is already in the middle or late stage. Therefore, doing a good job in liver cancer prevention can effectively reduce the mortality rate of liver cancer patients and greatly increase the survival time of patients.

The early symptoms of liver cancer include:

⒈ Jaundice, ascites, and skin itching;

⒉ Often manifested as nose bleeding, subcutaneous bleeding, etc.

⒊ Fatigue, weight loss, unexplained fever and edema;

⒋ Significant loss of appetite: abdominal distension, indigestion, sometimes nausea and vomiting;

5. Dull pain in the right upper abdomen: There may be persistent or intermittent pain in the liver area, which may sometimes be aggravated by changes in body position;

How can we prevent liver cancer?

1. First, throw away the moldy food at home. Aflatoxin contaminated in these foods can cause liver cancer. It is recommended to eat more fresh food.

2. Maintain a healthy weight, neither too thin nor too fat, to prevent malnutrition or fatty liver disease.

3. Keep a positive attitude when encountering problems. If you have hepatitis and do not control it well, the chance of cancer is dozens of times higher than that of ordinary people. If you also have a bad attitude, the chance will be even higher.

4. Regular physical examination is the simplest way to detect liver cancer early. It is recommended that citizens have regular physical examinations, especially those in high-risk groups (patients with hepatitis B or C), and it is best to have alpha-fetoprotein (AFp) testing or B-ultrasound every six months to check for cancer.

5. Self-examination: Most of the manifestations of liver disease are mainly digestive tract symptoms. Once you experience unexplained nausea, vomiting, abdominal distension, loss of appetite, fatigue, aversion to greasy food, etc., you should be aware that there may be something wrong with your liver. If you find that your urine is obviously yellow and your stool is light white, you must go to the hospital as soon as possible.
