Liver cancer is a severe condition often arising from chronic liver diseases, such as
hepatitis or
liver cirrhosis, as well as lifestyle factors like excessive alcohol use. Symptoms typically include abdominal pain, unexplained weight loss,
jaundice, and fatigue, which may not manifest until later stages. Early detection through imaging and blood tests is essential for effective treatment options, which may involve surgery,
chemotherapy, or
liver transplantation. With prompt intervention and a comprehensive treatment strategy, the likelihood of successfully managing liver cancer significantly increases.
