Right upper abdominal pain should be careful of liver cancer

Liver cancer is a malignant tumor that occurs in the liver. Early symptoms are usually mild and difficult to detect. As the disease progresses, it may cause dull pain in the right upper abdomen. In most cases, it is caused by compression of local tissues due to increased tumor volume. However, dull pain in the right upper abdomen is not unique to liver cancer. It may also be related to local trauma, hepatitis, cirrhosis, cholecystitis, gallstones, etc., so when symptoms occur, it is recommended to seek medical examination first, so as to determine the cause.
