Can Cirrhosis Of The Liver-stage 3 Cause Pain In The Chest?
Well I have cirrhosis of the live, stage 3 and tonight I had a very sharp pain in the middle of my chest just below the chest bone, where it makes a V. And when I placed my hand there due to the pain I felt a lump that I had not felt/had before. What could the cause be and should I go to my local E.R

Hello dear Greetings
Regarding your experience with pain at the lower part of your chest wall with associated hard mass around the area following a diagnosed liver cirrhosis I will suggest a possible malignant tumor from the liver disease
In view of this please do an abdominal scan to rule out the above condition
Meanwhile schedule an appointment with a hepatologist specialist for expert clinical assessment Councelling and adequate drug prescription as well as possible chemotherapy
I hope this helps Regards
