Early symptoms of gallbladder cancer
Disease description:
My own gallbladder isn't in very good condition, and I'm worried that I might have gallbladder cancer. I would like to ask the doctor: What are the early symptoms of gallbladder cancer?

Gallbladder cancer is a type of malignant tumor that often presents no obvious symptoms in the early stages, making timely detection difficult.
1. Early-stage gallbladder cancer may manifest as mild upper abdominal discomfort or dull pain, with patients frequently experiencing indigestion or abdominal distension.
2. As the tumor grows, progressive jaundice may develop, characterized by yellowing of the skin, sclera, and mucous membranes.
3. A minority of cases may present with nonspecific symptoms such as unexplained weight loss or decreased appetite.
Individuals exhibiting the above symptoms or having high-risk factors (such as gallstones, chronic cholecystitis, etc.) should seek medical attention promptly and undergo regular relevant examinations.
