Yellowing of whites of eyes in advanced stage of lung cancer may be related to metastasis of cancer cells to liver, damage to liver during treatment, or suffering from liver disease itself.
1. Cancer cells metastasize to liver: if cancer cells metastasize and invade liver, it may cause liver cell damage and hepatocellular jaundice, which may lead to yellowing of the whites of eyes.
2. Damage to liver during treatment: during the use of chemotherapy, targeted drugs and other treatments, liver function may be damaged and yellowing of the whites of the eyes may occur.
3. Suffering from liver disease: if one suffers from hepatitis B, cirrhosis and other diseases, yellowing of the whites of the eyes can be caused with the progress of the disease.
It is suggested that people with yellowing of the whites of the eyes in the advanced stage of lung cancer should go to the hospital in time to clarify the cause and carry out standardized treatment under the guidance of doctors.
