Early Detection of Liver Cancer: Symptoms & Importance

Liver cancer is often initially diagnosed at an advanced stage because it often does not cause symptoms in its early stages. Symptoms of liver cancer can include:

- Abdominal pain

- Unexplained weight loss

- Fatigue

- Nausea and vomiting

- Yellowing of the skin and eyes (jaundice)

- Swelling in the abdomen

- Dark urine

- Light-colored stools

If you experience any of these symptoms, it is important to see your doctor right away. Liver cancer is often curable if it is diagnosed and treated early.
