Just posted an article yesterday.

Although the early symptoms of liver cancer are not obvious, there are some hidden symptoms.

Such as sleep. Some friends asked, how to explain the problems of early sleep in liver cancer from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine.

I consulted a relevant TCM friend.

The general explanation is as follows.

From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, sleep problems in the early stage of liver cancer may be related to liver qi stagnation and qi and blood imbalance.

First of all, in TCM theory, the liver is responsible for regulating qi and making it smooth.

If the mood is not smooth, such as anger, sorrow and other emotions, it will lead to stagnation of liver qi, poor qi, and then affect sleep. Patients may experience symptoms such as insomnia, excessive dreams, and easy awakening.

Secondly, the early stage of liver cancer may be accompanied by qi and blood imbalance.

Insufficient blood in the liver cannot nourish the mind and mind, and will also affect the quality of sleep. Patients may have difficulty falling asleep, sleeping lightly, and waking up easily.

Finally, in the early stage of liver cancer, there may be manifestations of dampness and heat in the liver meridian, which will also affect sleep. Patients may have sleep problems such as difficulty falling asleep, waking up easily, and dreaming a lot.

It should be noted that TCM diagnoses diseases through the method of looking, smelling, asking, and cutting, and comprehensively analyzes the patient's condition, including pulse, tongue, symptoms, etc., in order to arrive at an accurate diagnosis.

Therefore, if you have sleep problems or other discomforts, it is recommended to see a doctor in time.

If Western medicine does not find any problems, you can go to a qualified TCM physician for relevant treatment.

The above views are purely personal.
