When shoulder pain occurs, the first thing most people think of is scapulohumeral periarthritis. In fact, shoulder pain is the first symptom or even the main symptom of most patients with liver cancer.

When the liver becomes cancerous, it is easy to compress the diaphragm and the nerves below the lungs, and then radiate the pain to the shoulders, causing shoulder pain.

In addition, liver cancer cells are prone to bone metastasis, and the shoulder is its favorite part.

How should shoulder pain caused by liver cancer be distinguished from periarthritis of shoulder?

The difference between the two is obvious:

1. The focus of scapulohumeral periarthritis is on the shoulder, and the pain is obvious. It is often difficult for patients to raise their hands above their heads; Shoulder pain caused by liver cancer, focusing on the liver. First there is obvious fatigue, then there is pain, which generally has little effect on action.

2, periarthritis of shoulder has obvious pain points and tenderness; Shoulder pain caused by liver cancer has no obvious pain point. T say where it hurts. My whole arm is uncomfortable.

3, scapulohumeral periarthritis is a simple joint inflammation, and the shoulder CT can clearly see the abnormality; Shoulder pain caused by liver cancer is normal, and transaminase and alpha-fetoprotein will increase significantly, among which alpha-fetoprotein is the most obvious.

In addition, there are two obvious abnormalities in the upper body and body of liver cancer.

1. prejudice

The obvious yellow spots on Wang Lao's sclera and face are the symptoms of jaundice.

Liver disease will greatly affect the transformation and metabolism of bilirubin in the body, thus causing the bilirubin content in the blood to rise, showing its own color and toxicity.

At this point, we can observe abnormalities through blood vessels and skin. The most common external manifestations are yellow sclera and yellow complexion.

2, liver odor

This is a serious period of liver diseases, such as cirrhosis, coma, liver cancer and so on. Often manifested as bad breath and body odor.

This taste is very special, like the smell of bad fruit mixed with the smell of bad eggs.

During liver disease, methionine will decompose more methyl mercaptan and ammonia gas in the body, and the metabolism is affected by liver disease, so the generated gas can not be discharged in time and accumulated in the body.

They are excreted with breath and sweat, producing a special smell of liver.

Take care of liver health and form two good habits.

1. Drink more tea

Drinking more tea can replenish water for the body and then moisturize the liver.

The liver is bad. Add chrysanthemum to the cup for brewing, and the effect will be better.

If you raise the liver, Huai Ju is the best, and the Huai Ju to which Yuntai Bingju belongs has a better effect. It is a subspecies of chrysanthemum, also known as the noble in chrysanthemum.

Sweet potato is often used to nourish the liver and contains many liver nourishing ingredients:

Selenium: damaged liver cells can be better repaired with the help of selenium, which also helps the liver to excrete toxins;

Choline: it can promote the metabolism of fat and effectively avoid the damage of fat accumulation to the liver;

Flavonoids: Inactivate free radicals, improve liver activity, reduce the formation of lipofuscin and protect liver health.

A cup of hot water every day can meet the needs of the liver.

2. Exercise more.

Health comes from exercise, and regular exercise is of great benefit to liver health.

First of all, regular exercise can consume liver fat in the liver, reduce the burden on the liver and prevent the liver from being hurt by too much liver fat.

Secondly, regular exercise can make the internal organs of the body more energetic and protect the liver.

Little knowledge:

Keep a good sleep and the liver will thank you.

The detoxification time of the liver is mainly concentrated in three or four hours after 23:00 at night, which is also called seasonal liver meridian.

Sleep well, the liver stores enough blood, the metabolic rate is improved, toxins can be better discharged, and the liver is cleaner.
