A member asked:

I was wondering what are the signs of liver cancer?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See below: Primary cancer of the liver does not have specific signs or symptoms in the early stages. Later there may be weakness, jaundice, weight loss, abdominal swelling and bleeding. Metastatic cancer of the liver from other organs is far commoner than primary liver cancer. See this site for more info. http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/liver-cancer/basics/definition/con-20025222.
