Symptoms of liver tumors
Liver pain: the most common and main symptom, mostly caused by liver capsule tension caused by tumor growth. Most of the pain was persistent dull pain, distending pain or pricking pain, which was aggravated at night or after fatigue. If the patient's liver pain changes to persistent pain, and gradually aggravates, we should be vigilant.
The location of the pain is closely related to the location of the lesion. The right liver lesion can show pain in the right upper abdomen, while the left liver lesion often shows "stomachache". If severe abdominal pain occurs suddenly with shock, the rupture of liver cancer nodules is more likely.
Gastrointestinal symptoms: such as loss of appetite, abdominal distension, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, etc. However, due to the lack of specificity, these symptoms are often ignored. The possibility of liver cancer should be considered when persistent gastrointestinal symptoms and progressive liver enlargement cannot be explained by other liver diseases.
