Itching, or pruritus, is often associated with jaundice, which is caused by the accumulation of bile salts in the blood due to bile duct blockage. This can cause significant itching, which can occur at night.
Itching, unlike other kinds, does not always improve with creams or antihistamines. This can interfere with sleep or comfort.
It is possible for itching to occur before the appearance of jaundice, which makes it an early symptom that is easy to miss.
It is advisable to seek medical attention if itching, especially if accompanied by yellow skin or eyes, persists.
Conclusion
Pancreatic cancer can also be difficult to identify at an early stage because its symptoms can be vague and may resemble other, less serious conditions.
If you notice a combination of symptoms, particularly pain, jaundice, or weight loss, you should seek medical attention.
