What are the clinical symptoms of liver cancer? Introducing 6 folk remedies for liver cancer

What clinical symptoms do liver cancer patients have? In life, we always face many things, and disease is one of them. Its sudden appearance always causes a great blow to our lives. The word cancer appears in life and represents despair. However, you should not be too desperate. If you understand the clinical symptoms in time, there is hope for timely treatment.

What clinical symptoms will liver cancer patients have?

Here is a summary of the symptoms of liver cancer:

1. Pain

Pain in the liver area is the first symptom of liver cancer. The pain is mostly located in the right rib or under the xiphoid process. It is mostly intermittent or persistent dull pain, dull pain or stabbing pain. The pain may be mild or severe, and may also relieve itself in the short term. However, before the pain in the liver area, the patient may have obvious symptoms of discomfort in the right upper abdomen, which is a late symptom of liver cancer.

2. Digestive tract symptoms

Decreased appetite, belching, indigestion, nausea, and upper abdominal fullness after meals are common symptoms of liver cancer, among which loss of appetite and abdominal bloating are the most common.

3. Fever

Sweating and fever are not symptoms of liver cancer in most cases, but moderate to low fever, or persistent high fever, are symptoms of liver cancer.

4. Weight loss and fatigue

Unexplained weight loss and fatigue are also the most common symptoms of liver cancer, and the symptoms of fatigue and weight loss are very obvious. As the disease progresses, the weight loss may worsen, and cachexia may occur in severe cases.

Conventional treatment methods

For patients with liver cancer, we usually use surgery and chemotherapy. Surgery is usually performed in the early stages of cancer, when the lesions are small, the site of onset is single, and the patient's physical fitness can withstand the surgery. Its advantage is that if the treatment is effective, it can be cured more thoroughly, but the surgical process carries a greater risk and is not suitable for patients with a large area of ​​metastasis. Chemotherapy uses radiotherapy to gradually reduce cancer cells. The initial effect is more obvious, but the treatment time is long and the toxic side effects on the patient's body are very large.
