The incidence and mortality of liver cancer are relatively high. China is also a big country with liver disease. There are large numbers of hepatitis B and liver cancer patients. Time to pay attention. Liver has cancer. What are the physical symptoms? A lot of people might say, of course pain. In case of other cancers, but the liver is special. Many patients experience no significant pain when diagnosed with liver cancer. Why? If liver cancer occurs, what signal does the body send? If caught early, the liver may be saved. Let's go into details.

Why do some liver cancer patients have no obvious pain?

As the saying goes, the stomach is the horn and the liver is the dumb. If your liver is sick, you won't feel pain right away. These symptoms are easy to ignore. This has to do with the properties of the liver itself, because the liver has no pain nerves, so it is difficult to produce pain. Pain occurs only when the lesion is severe enough that the liver capsule outside the liver is irritated.

In addition, the compensatory ability of the liver is also very strong, to what extent? Even when only 30 percent of healthy liver cells are left, the liver can still do its job of solving problems for the body.

However, this does not mean that the liver is without warning. If cancer develops, the body sends out some signals, such as the face. It is recommended to screen early, do not always feel that the skin is not good.

Body cancer, face prophet? What if the face has three signals? possible liver cancer

1. Sallow complexion

Although we Chinese are yellow, in general, although our skin is yellow, we still have color, not sallow. However, many people with liver disease have symptoms of jaundice, especially on the face and skin. If liver cancer occurs, there will be problems with the metabolism of bilirubin. If too much bilirubin cannot be metabolized, it accumulates in the body and penetrates into the skin tissue, and the skin becomes yellowish. As the disease progresses, jaundice can worsen and even the face can turn dark.

2. Frequent nosebleeds

In the eyes of many people, nosebleeds are either caused by getting angry or by collision, so it is difficult to think of liver cancer. But the liver makes blood, stores blood, and is the blood bank in the body. If cancer occurs, the coagulation mechanism in the body will be affected, resulting in obstacles, the synthesis of coagulation factors will be reduced, and it will easily cause bleeding. If you have frequent nosebleeds for no reason without any nasal lesions, it is best to screen for liver cancer as soon as possible.

3. Long spider nevus

Spider naevi are also a common symptom in patients with liver cancer. It is commonly found on the face and neck and looks like spider legs. After pressing by hand, the mole disappears quickly and then returns to its original state. Severe liver disease can reduce the ability to eliminate estrogen. High levels of estrogen can interfere with the normal dilation of capillaries, leading to spider naevi.

If these three abnormalities occur inexplicably on the face, or if the liver is calling the police, please check as soon as possible to be safe. In particular, people with hepatitis, cirrhosis, and other liver diseases and those with a family history of liver cancer are high-risk groups and deserve more attention.

To sum up, although liver cancer may not be able to release pain signals to you in time, it is not without symptoms. There will be hints on the face. I hope you have not received any of the above three hints on the face. Recruitment, early screening, the liver may be saved.
