The symptoms for liver cancer?

These symptoms might be caused by liver cancer:

• Unexplained weight loss
• Anorexia (persistent lack of appetite)
• Early satiety (feeling very full after a small meal)
• Persistent abdominal pain
• Increasing abdominal girth (swelling of the "stomach" area) with or without breathing difficulty
• Sudden jaundice (yellow-green coloration of the skin and eyes) with no apparent reason
• Dramatic change in the overall condition of a patient with chronic hepatitis or cirrhosis
• Liver enlargement or a mass that can be felt in the area of the liver

Most of these symptoms are non-specific and may be caused by other cancers or less serious conditions. The only way to find out is to receive a medical evaluation. The sooner the symptoms are diagnosed, the sooner appropriate treatments can begin and the more effective treatment is likely to be.
