Symptom 1: abdominal pain is the earliest symptom, beginning with upper abdominal distension, followed by abdominal pain. Abdominal pain of pancreatic head cancer tends to the right upper abdomen, and pancreatic body and tail cancer tends to the left upper abdomen. A few people may have periumbilical pain, even right lower abdominal pain or left lower abdominal pain. In the later stage, there may be abdominal and back pain in a banded shape, which is often related to body position. It is aggravated in supine position, slightly relieved in bending, forward leaning sitting position or lateral lying position, aggravated after eating, and more severe at night.
