The symptoms of emaciation are also typical. If you lose weight 10 kg in an inexplicable short time, you should be on your guard. Because the nutrients ingested by the human body are taken away by cancer cells, patients will obviously lose weight in a short time.
After suffering from hepatitis, the patient's weight will not change much. However, after hepatitis turns into liver cancer, cancer cells are increasing or spreading, which requires a lot of nutrition. Therefore, most of the nutrients in the food people eat every day are plundered by cancer cells, which leads to insufficient nutrition supply for normal cells and obvious weight loss.
If you find that you lose weight in a short time during the treatment of hepatitis, you need to inform your doctor in time and check your liver function. During the treatment of hepatitis, it is necessary to check regularly to understand the development of hepatitis. When detecting transaminase, if transaminase is found to be too high, it may be that liver disease is further aggravated.
Liver pain is an obvious symptom in the early stage of liver cancer. The liver is located on the right side of the abdomen. Patients should be alert to liver cancer when they find pain in their right abdomen. Because the pain is irregular and most people can tolerate it, so many people will ignore this symptom.
Nausea and vomiting are also one of the early symptoms of liver cancer. Cancer cells will destroy the function of the liver, which is close to the stomach, so the stomach will show nausea and vomiting after being affected. I want to feel sick for no reason, and I often feel sick in my stomach. In addition to stomach problems, we should also be alert to the early manifestations of liver cancer.
The liver palm, that is, the palm, turns red. When the thenar, thenar and fingertips of the palm are found to have flaky congestion, there are pink spots and patches on the surface of the palm, which turn from pale to red after pressing, which is the performance of the liver palm. That is to say, if you have liver palm, some patients will have similar performance on the soles of their feet.
In hepatobiliary surgery or gastroenterology or infectious diseases, you will always find some people with dark faces and no spirit. This is a typical liver disease face. The reason is that liver function is damaged and liver cells rupture, which leads to the increase of bilirubin in the body and the yellow staining of skin and sclera. With the aggravation of the disease, the skin will turn black.
This symptom is easily misdiagnosed as stomach disease, which delays the early detection and treatment of liver cancer. Generally manifested as loss of appetite, warm abdominal distension after meals, decreased digestive function, nausea, diarrhea and other digestive tract symptoms, common in the early stage of liver cancer. Loss of appetite, diarrhea and abdominal distension are the most common manifestations.
After suffering from hepatitis, there is inflammation in the liver area, and patients occasionally feel discomfort or pain in the liver area, which may only be dull pain in the early stage of the disease. However, with the development of hepatitis and further damage to the liver, patients can obviously feel pain in the liver area, even dull pain or tingling.
The early symptoms of liver cancer are bleeding in the body and gum bleeding, not only bleeding when brushing teeth, but also bleeding at other times, even nosebleeds, so be highly vigilant. Caution is a sign of liver cancer.
Skin itching is also one of the early symptoms of liver cancer. The decline of liver function will affect the excretion of metabolites, leading to the accumulation of metabolites in the skin, which will lead to itchy skin. Some people feel itchy and uncomfortable, but they can't find a specific place, so that they are uncomfortable all over. If they behave like this, they should be alert to liver cancer.
