2. The skin turns yellow or the eyes are yellow

The liver is the center of bilirubin metabolism. When the liver develops abnormally, lesions appear, the metabolism of bilirubin will be blocked, and the substance cannot be excreted or metabolized through the liver biliary system, then they enter the blood, causes serum concentrations of bilirubin to increase.

If your urine is dark brown, it may be a sign of liver damage. The direct cause is that the level of bilirubin in the blood increases to a certain level, which is excreted in the urine, and the color of the urine becomes darker than normal (pale yellow).

4. Black and dark, dull facial skin

Many people with chronic hepatitis, especially those with cirrhosis, often have dark, dull skin. Of course this symptom does not exclude endocrine disorders, melasma, or prolonged, repeated jaundice, due to urinary tract infections. You must go to the doctor.

Once the liver has chronic diseases (such as cirrhosis, etc.), and there is no systemic treatment, in the middle and late stages of the disease, most of the time will lose appetite and the mouth has viscosity stick like excess grease.

In addition, the liver has many tasks to perform complex and important functions. In the middle and end stages of the disease, the important function of the liver can be destroyed, causing moisture of the blood in the blood vessels to flow into the stomach, from which there may be symptoms of ascites, causing pressure in The abdomen increases, leading to bloating, bloating.

Among patients with liver cancer in China, most have a history of hepatitis, which is the three-step development of the disease "hepatitis, cirrhosis, liver cancer". Therefore, when you have decreased appetite, weight loss and flatulence. Once again, your health alarm is ringing!

So, don't blame the disease, the doctor reminded you to take care of your body often, watch for signs that could be dangerous and seek medical advice. Try to do as little as possible about things that are harmful to your health like bad habits, unhealthy activities.
