Pancreatic cancer: These 10 signs can help you detect it (don’t ignore them)

💬“It is important to know the symptoms of this disease and not wait until they become severe to seek medical advice,” warns Anton Bilchik, an oncological surgeon in the United States.

Here are 10 subtle signs 🕵️‍♀️ that could save your life ❤️.

👁️💛 Your eyes and skin are yellow (3/12)
Yellowing of the whites of the eyes and skin is never a good sign ⚠️.
It can be a symptom of:

  • alcoholism🍷

  • liver failure🫀

  • or pancreatic cancer🧫

🧠Explanation: Many pancreatic tumors occur in the head of the pancreas, near the bile ducts.
Even a small tumor can block the bile duct, preventing bile from flushing out bilirubin, a waste product of red blood cells.
👉Result: Bilirubin buildup → jaundice and yellowing of the eyes.

🤰 You look like you’re 4 months pregnant (4/12).
A bloated belly after eating is normal. But if it lasts for several days, be careful!⚠️

“As pancreatic tumors grow, they can cause abdominal distension,” explains Dr. Bilchik.

It’s often one of the first signs, but it’s rarely taken seriously.
👩‍⚕️Get checked out: it’s probably not cancer, but it can happen.
💬Prevention is better than cure!
