Upper Abdominal Pain
Symptom Description:
Upper abdominal pain is another symptom that can be linked to liver cancer. This pain is usually felt on the right side, where the liver is located, and can be mistaken for common issues like indigestion or muscle strain.
What It Might Mean:
In liver cancer, upper abdominal pain is caused by the growing tumor pressing against surrounding tissues and organs. The liver itself may become inflamed or swollen, contributing to discomfort and pain in the upper abdomen.
