Globally, 620,000 people die of liver cancer every year, and about 55% of them occur in China, and the high incidence age of liver cancer in China is 35-45 years old. Most of the patients we find in the clinic have already progressed to the middle and late stages, at which time they are often powerless to recover and the survival rate is only about half a year. In order to prevent liver disease, we should establish a reasonable and healthy dietary structure, develop good living habits, and go to the hospital as soon as possible to confirm the diagnosis once there is any abnormality in the body, so as to get better treatment. What are the high risk groups of liver cancer? According to the research of our Liver Disease Center, there are mainly three groups of people: firstly, those who suffer from hepatitis; secondly, those who drink alcohol for a long period of time; and thirdly, those who like to eat peanuts and other aflatoxin-containing foods. Originally, young people should belong to the “low-risk group” of liver cancer, because most of the hepatitis after a long period of time to gradually develop into cirrhosis or liver cancer, in the past, the high incidence of cancer age is generally in the forties and fifties after. 20 years ago, it is difficult to receive a few patients with liver cancer a year. Nowadays, in the Liver Disease Center, more than 100 patients with liver disease are seen every day, and a few of them will be diagnosed with liver cancer, among which there is no lack of young and middle-aged patients, and young liver cancer patients in their 20s and 30s can be encountered several times every week. Recently, a liver cancer patient in his early 30s, a newspaper reporter, usually writes under great pressure, smokes one cigarette at a time and stays up at night day after day when his writing is not smooth; when he encounters some physical discomfort, he runs to the pharmacy and buys medicines “based on feeling”; he eats irregularly, and deals with it at street food stalls for convenience; and when there are leftovers, he does not know whether they are moldy or not, and then swallows them in one go. No mold on the swallow. His wife always quarreled with him for this reason, and he was often so angry that his liver hurt. This is a very typical patient. Two major cancer-causing viruses: hepatitis C is more harmful than hepatitis B! In liver cancer patients, hepatitis patients have become the largest ‘reserve army’, 90% of liver cancer patients with hepatitis B, hepatitis C or cirrhosis after hepatitis. Primary liver cancer patients are basically all due to infection with hepatitis B or C virus. Hepatitis C is very “cunning”, because the symptoms are extremely insidious, it is difficult for ordinary people to self-awareness in the early stage of hepatitis C. In the “symptomless” stage, the symptoms are very subtle. Under the appearance of “no symptoms”, the incubation period of hepatitis C can be up to 20 years in the “silent” evil, and continue to damage the liver. Director Yang Guoqing explained: the longer the hepatitis virus in the body, the greater the chance of liver cancer. Normal liver cells metabolize only once every six months, while hepatitis virus carriers renew their cells once every three months, and if they are hepatitis patients, their cells will be “renewed” every month. The faster the cells are renewed, the higher the chance of cancer. The prevention and treatment of liver cancer depends largely on whether the hepatitis virus can be completely removed from the body during the chronic hepatitis stage, thus greatly reducing the possibility of cell cancer. Anyone who has received blood transfusion, shared syringes and dental instruments that have not been strictly sterilized, endoscopy, invasive operations and needlesticks, has a history of unclean sex, or has used instruments that have not been strictly sterilized for tattooing, eyebrow tattooing, piercing of earrings and other traumatic operations of the skin and mucous membranes, is a high-risk group of Hepatitis C, and it is recommended to go to the hospital as soon as possible to undergo a test. Warm reminder: two tests can know whether you are suffering from liver cancer 1, regular physical examination: this is the easiest way to detect liver cancer early; it is recommended that the public should have regular physical examination, especially the high-risk group (hepatitis B or C patients), it is best to pass the alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) test or ultrasound every half a year to check for cancerous lesions, to the Tongji Hospital, however, a few tens of dollars can be done to complete the examination. 2.Self-inspection: most of the manifestations of liver disease are mainly digestive symptoms, once there are unexplained nausea, vomiting, bloating, loss of appetite, fatigue, anorexia, etc., we should realize that there may be a problem with the liver. If you find that the urine color is obviously yellow and the stool color is light white, you must go to the hospital as soon as possible.
