As per my understanding the patient is suffering from liver and gallbladder cancer, and is having ascites and high bilirubin. Ascites is definitely a complication associated with advanced cancer. Doctors may do regular paracentesis to remove this fluid. It is advisable to consult an oncologist and religiously follow his advice and do the best for the patient. Along with treatment patient may need psychological support to deal with the disease. Regular nursing and family support will help patient. Kindly consult an oncologist for evaluation.

Persistent throat pain can have many causes.. and while smoking is a known risk factor for throat cancer, it doesn't necessarily mean you have cancer if you experience throat pain. There are many other possible reasons for throat discomfort, like infections, allergies, acid reflux, or even smoking-related issues like irritation and inflammation. If you're very concerned you can visit for a checkup at your nearest cancer hospital.
