Shoulder pain, mistaken for scapulohumeral periarthritis, unexpectedly found out liver cancer! Expert analysis: there are differences between the two

 John (pseudonym) is a software developer for a game company. He is 28 years old this year. Since graduating at the age of 23, he has been working diligently for the future. Seeing life is thriving, but there are unexpected events. Recently, in a company's physical examination, it was found that alpha-fetoprotein was as high as 753ug/L, and the doctor advised him to take further examinations.

After listening to the doctor's advice, John went to the hospital for a more detailed examination. After the examination, it was found that John's liver did not grow a tumor of about 15 cm, and the tumor had spread to the lungs. He was diagnosed with advanced liver cancer.

When the doctor diagnosed John, he found a very serious problem. It turned out that John had been feeling shoulder pain a few months ago. Since work was the reason that he had to sit for a long time, he never took it seriously. When the pain is severe, I will put a little plaster on it and take a little pain medicine, but I haven't taken it seriously.

After listening to the doctor, the doctor analyzed: shoulder pain is obviously a bad liver. If the liver is not good, shoulder pain is different from frozen shoulder.

Shi Zhen, a doctor at Hubei Provincial Central Hospital, said: Liver cancer is a kind of cancer that is difficult to detect, and shoulder pain is a typical symptom of pre-liver cancer, but many people are often confused with frozen shoulder. In fact, there is a big difference between frozen shoulder and shoulder pain caused by liver cancer.

Shoulder pain caused by liver cancer is usually accompanied by fatigue, and the point of pain is also very difficult to determine. Sometimes patients can't tell where the pain is, and the pain is usually the right shoulder.

The pain of the right shoulder caused by frozen shoulder is mainly the feeling of stiffness in the shoulder. In severe cases, even the arm may have some pain, it is difficult to lift the arm, and the movement will not be carried out normally.

In addition, right shoulder pain caused by liver cancer and right shoulder pain caused by frozen shoulder, the cause of the pain will be very different.

Shoulder pain caused by liver cancer is usually caused by liver tumors oppressing the nerves below the lungs, and the location of pain is often not the location of the disease.

Frozen shoulder pain in the right shoulder may be caused by overworked ligaments and muscles for a long time, causing shoulder damage, and not getting good treatment for a long time.

Pay attention to distinguish the right shoulder pain caused by liver cancer and the right shoulder pain caused by frozen shoulder, so that we can find out in time. Not all patients with liver cancer will have shoulder pain in the early stages of onset, and some patients with liver cancer will also have other symptoms.

Liver cancer quietly? Liver cancer came to the door, the body reminded one year ago

● Body odor : symptoms such as body odor, liver odor, and fishy urine usually appear, which is also called "liver odor" in medicine, mainly because the liver is damaged, and the liver's detoxification, metabolism and other functions are affected. People think that the gas cannot be eliminated, so it is caused by expelling it through breathing, perspiration, etc.

● Skin yellowing : yellowing of the face, yellowing of the whites of the eyes, which is the medical "liver face". The health of the liver has a certain impact on the content of bilirubin in the body. When the liver is damaged At this time, the content of direct bilirubin, indirect bilirubin, and total bilirubin in the body may all increase, and the skin will turn yellow when it acts on the skin.

●Pain in liver area : Many liver cancer patients think about going to the hospital for examination because of liver pain, that is, the upper right side of our abdomen is painful. The liver lacks pain nerves, but the liver capsule has pain nerves, which is normal There is no pain, and only when it is squeezed into the capsule of the liver, the symptoms of liver pain will appear.

●Small red spots on the skin : spider-like small red spots on the body are mostly caused by the imbalance of estrogen and androgen levels in the body. It is normal for some adolescent girls or pregnant women to have small red spots. And if you are a man or an older woman, the appearance of small red dots is mostly due to a bad liver that affects the level of estrogen in the body, so you need to pay attention.

Nowadays, due to changes in people's lifestyles and dietary patterns, most people will experience varying degrees of liver damage. It is much better and more effective to keep the liver in time than to treat it after discovery.

People with poor liver, stick to 2 things, or more effective than exercise

The first one: drink more tea that nourishes the liver

Water can accelerate liver metabolism, and liver-raising tea helps reduce toxin accumulation and protect the liver.

People with poor liver can use Qingchiju to make tea, which is of great benefit to liver maintenance.

Chrysanthemum chrysanthemum is produced in Kaifeng, the ancient city of chrysanthemum. The unique geographical conditions make it richer in selenium, stachytine, flavonoids, amino acids and other liver nourishing ingredients than ordinary chrysanthemums.

Modern medical research shows:

Selenium element: It can repair liver damage, enhance liver function, and has a certain auxiliary effect on the treatment of liver disease.

Stachyhydrin: It can well promote the repair of liver cells, maintain the normal function of the liver, and nourish and protect the liver.

Flavonoids: can help eliminate harmful free radicals in the body, promote the consumption of fat in the liver, and protect the liver.

People with poor liver, drink water and add a chrysanthemum, stick to it, the liver will quietly get better.

The second thing: keep a happy mood

Emotions have a very large impact on the liver. There was a data showing that the probability of liver disease in people who are often angry is about 8 times that of normal people.

It does not mean that only anger can hurt the liver. All negative emotions may affect the health of the liver. There is also a saying in Chinese medicine that often anger is prone to hyperactivity of the liver yang, strong liver fire, and frequent depression will lead to insufficient liver blood. Liver qi stagnation.

Therefore, we usually need to maintain a good mood and mentality to make the liver healthier.
