Even though early liver cancer does not usually cause symptoms, people with cancer in later, larger stages may experience one or more of the following symptoms:
- Pain in upper right abdomen (stomach)
- Lump/feeling of heaviness in the upper abdomen (stomach)
- Swollen abdomen (bloating)
- Loss of appetite (feelings of fullness)
- Weight loss
- Weakness or fatigue
- Nausea and vomiting
- Yellow skin and eyes, pale stools (bodily solid waste), dark urine from jaundice (occurs when liver is not working properly or when a bile duct is blocked)
- Fever
If you have any of these symptoms, you should tell your doctor so that problems can be diagnosed and treated as early as possible.
