Bile Duct Cancer Symptoms: How to Identify Bile Duct Cancer

Bile duct cancer usually starts developing its symptoms when the bile duct gets blocked. It causes jaundice that turns the eyes and skin yellow which is caused by the development of a substance called ‘bilirubin’

A bile duct cancer patient may experience itching on the skin due to excess ‘bilirubin’ in the blood. They may also notice that the bilirubin has embrowned their bowel movements. 


They may experience a loss in their appetite and lose weight. 

Although a patient may not feel pain in the abdomen in the initial stage, they may start undergoing abdominal pain, especially on the right side of their ribs.
