Doctor's answer:

Early symptoms of ascites are generally not easy to observe or detect because the symptoms are very subtle. The patient may only feel mild abdominal distension, which is easily mistaken for poor digestion or something else. However, in the later stages, the patient may develop large amounts of ascites, leading to abdominal tension or protrusion, as well as abdominal bulging and discomfort caused by the large amount of ascites. Additionally, shortness of breath may occur, and when the doctor performs percussion, the abdomen may present with dullness.
