What are the causes of liver cancer? What are the early symptoms of liver cancer in women?

As a woman in the new era, you should not only play the role of mother and wife, but also play the role of employee. Therefore, women should learn to take care of themselves. At present, the early symptoms of liver cancer in women are also quietly approaching everyone. Experts suggest that women pay more attention and be vigilant to the occurrence of liver cancer. To stay away from liver cancer, you need to understand the causes of liver cancer.

The special geographical distribution of liver cancer indicates that it is related to environmental factors. Studies have found that aflatoxin in food can induce liver cancer in animals, indicating that aflatoxin in food is one of the causes of liver cancer.

The incidence of liver cancer in people who drink stagnant or stagnant water (pond or ditch water) is significantly higher than that in people who drink flowing water (river or well water). Some scholars have observed that the content of trace element selenium in the soil of certain areas is low, while the incidence of liver cancer is high. Therefore, they believe that increasing the selenium content in food can prevent the occurrence of liver cancer.

Malnutrition and nutritional deficiency: Nutrition and tumors were major issues in human health in the 1990s and were highly valued by all sectors of society. Its role is to accelerate or slow down canceration in the cancer-promoting stage. High-fat and pickled and smoked foods are most closely related to the occurrence of tumors. It is advisable to eat less of these foods and eat more vegetables, fruits and whole grains. Animal experiments have confirmed that a high-fat diet, hypoproteinemia, methionine and choline deficiency can cause liver cell necrosis, fatty changes, cirrhosis and liver cancer.

If the diet is rich in protein, methionine and B vitamins, the occurrence of liver cancer can be delayed or even prevented. Trace elements: Trace elements were tested in soil, drinking water, food, human hair and blood in high-incidence areas, and it was found that copper and zinc were high, and selenium was low. The relationship between trace elements copper, zinc, selenium and liver cancer is worth noting.

Genetic factors: Liver cancer sometimes occurs in families, often through the families living together and being related by blood. Many scholars believe that the cause of family clustering may be vertical transmission of viral hepatitis from mother to child.

What are the early symptoms of liver cancer in women? Experts point out that they are as follows:

1. A history of hepatitis and cirrhosis, with stable condition for many years, without chills or fever, and sudden dull or severe pain in the liver and gallbladder areas are also common early symptoms of liver cancer in women.

2. Adults over 30 years old may feel a lump in the right upper abdomen and upper abdomen. The lump is hard in texture and has an uneven surface. It shows an obvious tendency to increase in size with continuous observation, but the patient has no obvious discomfort.

3. Body aches and pains in joints. Early symptoms of liver cancer in women are most obvious in the waist and back, accompanied by anorexia, irritability, and discomfort in the liver area. Anti-rheumatic treatment has not been effective.

4. Recurrent diarrhea accompanied by indigestion and abdominal distension, with ineffective or incurable treatment for gastroenteritis, dull pain in the liver area, and gradual weight loss.
