6. Yellowing of Skin and Eyes (Jaundice)
Jaundice is one of the most recognizable signs of liver dysfunction. It causes a yellowish tint in the skin and eyes.
Why It Happens
When the liver cannot properly process bilirubin, a yellow pigment from red blood cell breakdown, it accumulates in the body. This buildup results in visible discoloration of the skin and eyes.
7. Dark Urine and Pale Stools
Changes in the color of urine and stool may be early signs of liver cancer. Dark urine or light-colored stools should never be ignored.
Why It Happens
These changes usually indicate bile duct obstruction. Since the liver produces bile, cancer growth can block its flow, altering the natural color of body waste.
