What are the symptoms and treatments of liver cancer? Liver cancer is a disease that people always discover only when it is seriously developed, resulting in a rising mortality rate. Experts say that in the treatment of liver cancer, we should not only grasp the timing well, but also choose the right treatment method. So, what are the symptoms and treatments of liver cancer? Symptoms of Liver Cancer 1. Early symptoms: 1. Significant decrease in appetite, indigestion, sometimes nausea, abdominal distension, and vomiting; 2. Continuous or intermittent pain in the liver area, dull pain in the right upper abdomen, sometimes aggravated by changes in body position; 3. Subcutaneous bleeding, nosebleed, etc.; 4. Ascites, itchy skin, and jaundice; 5. Fever and edema of unknown cause, fatigue, and weight loss. 2. Symptoms in the middle and late stages: mainly jaundice, weight loss, ascites, liver pain, fatigue, etc. The details are as follows: 1. Gastrointestinal symptoms, indigestion, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, etc. 2. Weight loss and fatigue. 3. Fever, generally low fever, occasionally reaching 39 degrees or above. 4. Pain in the liver area, the most common is intermittent continuous dull pain or distending pain, caused by the rapid growth of the cancer, which tightens the liver capsule and causes tumor invasion of the diaphragm pain, which can radiate to the right shoulder or right back; tumors growing to the right back can cause right waist pain. 5. Symptoms of metastatic lesions, there are corresponding symptoms where the tumor metastasizes, such as coughing and hemoptysis when metastasized to the lungs; pleural metastasis can cause chest pain and bloody pleural effusion; metastasis to the bones can cause local pain or pathological fractures; metastasis to the spine or compression of the spinal nerves can cause local pain or paraplegia; intracranial metastasis can cause corresponding symptoms, such as intracranial hypertension can lead to brain herniation and sudden death. 6. Jaundice, jaundice is a common sign of middle and late liver cancer, and diffuse liver cancer and cholangiocarcinoma are most likely to have jaundice. 7 Other systemic symptoms, common ones include spontaneous hypoglycemia, polycythemia, hyperlipidemia, hypercalcemia, etc. Treatment for liver cancer 1. Liver transplant surgery Liver transplantation is the only radical surgical method for treating mid- to late-stage liver cancer. It involves implanting a healthy liver into the patient's body to restore liver function to normal levels. In short, after removing the patient's diseased liver, the donor liver is implanted into the recipient's (patient's) original liver location according to the normal anatomical structure of the human body. 2. Liver resection surgery Liver resection surgery is a radical treatment for liver cancer patients by Navy hepatobiliary experts. It is still the preferred method for curing early and middle-stage liver cancer in the medical field, both in the past and now. Liver resection surgery is based on the patient's best prognosis. During the operation, necrotic and cancerous tumors in the liver are accurately removed, while minimizing the patient's trauma. The Navy's hepatobiliary surgery department's authoritative liver resection technology has incomparable advantages, including less trauma to patients, complete tumor resection, fast recovery, and fewer postoperative complications. 3. Radiofrequency ablation technology Radiofrequency ablation is an advanced technology that integrates human and machine operation. It accurately locates the local cancerous cells and causes coagulative necrosis to block the spread of liver cancer cells. It is an interventional technology that causes little damage to other liver tissues and adjacent tissues. Therefore, it is more suitable for patients with small liver cancer and multiple liver cancers. The intraoperative trauma is small and the recovery is fast. After the operation, the patient strictly follows the doctor's instructions and observes for a period of time before being discharged from the hospital. This method reduces the pain of liver cancer patients and allows them to return to normal life in a short time. 4. Cellular Immunotherapy Liver cancer can be treated with cellular immunotherapy, which can stimulate the body's own immune system to inhibit and treat tumors. It can make up for the shortcomings of traditional surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy. While killing tumor cells, it regulates and restores the body's immune function, kills formed tumor cells, inhibits the formation of new tumor cells, and blocks the source of tumor recurrence and metastasis. It is the best way to treat liver cancer. There are many ways to treat liver cancer, and this disease cannot be treated without medicine. However, we would like to remind you that we must follow the doctor's instructions when choosing medicine for liver cancer, and we must not take medicine blindly to avoid more serious consequences. Finally, I wish you a speedy recovery. 2 delicious dishes to treat liver cancer jaundice Mid- to late-stage liver cancer is a more serious condition.
