How to stabilize the condition of liver cancer in the late stage? Beware of liver cancer in the late stage if you have these 6 symptoms

When the disease develops to the late stage, it means that the condition is already very serious, especially liver cancer. So, what should we do at this time? Let's take a look at the following introduction.

If you have these 6 symptoms, beware of advanced liver cancer

1. Increased pain in the liver area

In advanced liver cancer, the tumor will damage and infiltrate the body's normal tissues, thereby squeezing and damaging nearby nerve roots, causing partial tissue necrosis and increased pain.

2. Increased nausea and vomiting

Such as adverse reactions after treatment, cancer cells invading the digestive and nervous systems.

3. Severe loss of appetite

Patients often have no interest in food due to cancer pain, mood, tumor stimulation and other factors.

4. Malignant effusion

It is common in the thoracic and abdominal cavity, peritoneal cavity, pericardial cavity and other parts of the body. If relevant treatment measures are not taken in time, it can directly lead to death.

5. Hepatic coma

It is often a manifestation of the late stage of liver cancer. Gastrointestinal bleeding, secondary infection, too many diuretics, electrolyte imbalance, etc. can often induce hepatic coma, so special attention should be paid to it in the late stage of liver cancer.

6. Difficulty breathing

Typical symptoms of advanced liver cancer also include dyspnea, which can easily lead to shock and life-threatening consequences. At the same time, many patients are afraid of this symptom, which in turn aggravates dyspnea, so they must learn to adjust.

What to do in late stage liver cancer?

Patients with advanced liver cancer can live with cancer for a long time with active and effective treatment, even if they cannot be cured. Their life span can even be extended by several years or even 20 to 30 years. Therefore, effective treatment of advanced liver cancer is still necessary. If you want to live, you cannot give up treatment, and you must actively cooperate with effective treatment. The main treatment is for complications.

1. For patients with primary liver cancer and ascites:

It can be treated by giving diuretics. If it is bloody ascites, attention should be paid to hemostasis.

2. For patients with primary liver cancer and jaundice:

Jaundice is mainly caused by cancer compression, which leads to blockage and can be treated by local radiotherapy or chemotherapy.

3. For patients with slow metastasis throughout the lungs

Patients with chronic metastasis throughout the lungs can be treated with biological therapy, chemotherapy, or traditional Chinese medicine.

4. For patients with primary liver cancer and lung metastasis

Lung metastasis can be divided into single metastasis or multiple metastasis. Single metastasis can be considered for re-resection through surgery; if it is multiple metastasis, it can be treated with radiotherapy and chemotherapy.

5. For patients with primary liver cancer bone metastasis

Similar to lung metastasis above, it can be divided into single, multiple or extensive metastasis. The former two can be treated with radiotherapy, while the latter requires radiotherapy and chemotherapy, or treatment with osteophospholipids and Acordant.

6. For patients with cancer thrombus in portal vein, hepatic vein, or inferior vena cava

In this case, perfusion chemotherapy, traditional Chinese medicine, or gamma knife surgery are often used. The specific method to be used depends on the individual situation.
