What are the symptoms of advanced liver cancer? These three phenomena will appear

According to the degree of disease development and clinical manifestations, cancer is divided into three stages, namely early, middle and late stages. Patients in different stages exhibit different symptoms. Liver cancer is a malignant tumor occurring in the liver. It is extremely harmful. Many patients are in the middle and late stages once they are discovered. So, what are the symptoms of late-stage liver cancer?

1. Bleeding tendency <br/>Patients with advanced liver cancer often have symptoms such as bleeding gums and subcutaneous tissue ecchymosis. The main reason for this is that the liver cells in the late stage have been destroyed in large quantities, affecting the normal liver function and causing abnormal coagulation. Therefore, patients with advanced liver cancer will have a bleeding tendency.
This bleeding tendency is common in patients with liver cancer and cirrhosis. The most common bleeding site is the digestive tract. Digestive tract bleeding is caused by varicose veins at the fundus of the stomach due to venous hypertension. Digestive tract bleeding is one of the main causes of death in patients with advanced liver cancer.

2. Pain in the liver area More than 50% of patients with advanced liver cancer will experience pain in the liver area, and the pain is mostly located in the right hypochondrium or under the xiphoid process. The initial pain is mostly intermittent dull pain or stabbing pain. As the disease progresses, the pain will last longer.
Pain in the liver area can be mild or severe, and may even ease or disappear on its own after a period of pain. However, if the condition is very serious, the cancer on the surface of the liver cells may rupture, and necrotic cancer tissue and blood may flow into the abdominal cavity, causing sudden severe pain. If the amount of bleeding is large, it may directly lead to shock or death.

3. Jaundice and weight loss <br/>Late-stage liver cancer usually progresses gradually. The jaundice that patients experience may be obstructive jaundice or hepatocellular jaundice. In addition, there may be abdominal discomfort and loss of appetite, which are not typical symptoms and are often ignored. As the disease progresses, the patient's symptoms will become more severe, such as progressive weight loss, bleeding, and ascites.
To sum up, the symptoms of late-stage liver cancer are relatively obvious and the harm is also quite great. For patients with late-stage liver cancer, never give up on yourself or muddle through. You must have confidence in yourself and have expectations for treatment. Only in this way can you have the courage and strength to defeat the disease.
