9. Enlarged Liver: When Growth Isn’t a Good Thing
An enlarged liver, or hepatomegaly, is another potential symptom of liver cancer. The liver may become enlarged due to the presence of a tumor or inflammation caused by the cancer’s progression. This enlargement can be detected during a physical examination or through imaging studies such as ultrasound or CT scan.
The presence of an enlarged liver may be accompanied by other symptoms, such as abdominal pain or discomfort, and can be an indicator of liver cancer or other severe liver conditions. It is crucial to seek medical attention if you suspect you have an enlarged liver, as early detection and intervention are vital for successful treatment and improved outcomes. (9)
