Who are the high-risk groups for liver cancer? These high-risk groups should take preventive measures

The incidence of liver cancer ranks among the top three cancers in my country. At the same time, its mortality rate is also very high. Therefore, for liver cancer, our most important thing is prevention. This article is mainly to popularize how to prevent liver cancer. I hope everyone can read it carefully, especially those who are at high risk of liver cancer.

Who are the high-risk groups for liver cancer?

1. People with a family history of liver cancer

The chance of inheriting liver cancer is relatively high. In addition, it is closely related to hepatitis B, which is familial and contagious. Therefore, if there is a family history of hepatitis B or liver cancer, the chance of getting liver cancer is higher than the average person, so you must pay more attention to it in your daily life.

2. People with liver cirrhosis

Cirrhosis is mainly caused by hepatitis. If cirrhosis is not treated in time, it will develop into liver cancer. Especially when patients with cirrhosis have ascites, they must pay more attention to whether cancer occurs.

3. People living in areas with a high incidence of liver cancer

Liver cancer is regional. According to surveys, in my country's southeastern coastal areas, such as Guangxi, Shanghai, and other places, the number of people who die from liver cancer each year can reach about 100,000, so people living in these areas should be more careful.

4. People who are chronic alcoholics

The damage to the liver caused by long-term alcoholism is obvious. Alcoholic liver disease, fatty liver disease and other "alcohol-related" problems will greatly affect the normal functioning of the liver, thereby inducing liver diseases such as cirrhosis. If you are not careful, you may be attacked by liver cancer.

Since liver cancer progresses rapidly and secretly, the high-risk groups for liver cancer mentioned above must pay attention to liver cancer prevention and have regular physical examinations.

To prevent liver cancer, pay attention to the following aspects:

1. Hepatitis B vaccine injection

Hepatitis can easily develop into liver cancer, and my country is a country with a high incidence of hepatitis B. Currently, there is no particularly effective way to treat hepatitis B, so the most direct and effective way to prevent hepatitis B is to get vaccinated.

2. Regular inspection

Since liver cancer is very common in our country, the best way to effectively prevent liver cancer is to have regular physical examinations. It is generally recommended to have a physical examination once a year.

3. Develop good eating habits

Do not smoke or drink, eat less spicy, pickled, and smoked foods, do not eat moldy food, drink clean water, have a balanced diet, supplement the various nutrients needed by the human body, eat more fresh fruits and vegetables and foods that can prevent and fight cancer, and avoid liver cancer caused by dietary problems.

4. Develop good work and rest habits

Pay attention to rest, combine work and rest, and don't stay up late. Night is the best time for the liver to repair itself when people sleep. If you often stay up late, the liver will not get rest. Over time, the liver's detoxification and metabolic abilities will be greatly reduced, thereby increasing the incidence of liver tumors.

5. Actively prevent and treat liver diseases

For example, hepatitis, cirrhosis, and many liver cancer patients develop this disease because these two diseases are not addressed in a timely manner.
