What are the symptoms of postoperative bone metastasis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma
summary
I had an operation on my nose, because I got nasopharyngeal carcinoma. It's been a month since the operation. But recently, my bones all over my body are aching, and I'm very hard to walk. It's very uncomfortable. As a result, the reexamination said that there was bone metastasis. Now let's learn the symptoms of bone metastasis after nasopharyngeal carcinoma surgery.
What are the symptoms of postoperative bone metastasis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma
Symptom 1: there is no symptom in the early stage of bone metastasis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma. When the tumor grows to a certain extent, it will compress or stimulate the sensory nerve endings, or cause bone destruction and pain. The pain started intermittently, then became persistent, especially at night, and could not be relieved by rest or braking.
Symptom 2: some patients have low fever or anemia. Pathological fracture may occur in patients with severe bone and skin damage. If it is a cervical fracture, it can compress the cervical spinal cord, causing weakness of limbs, dyspnea, or even respiratory arrest. In the late stage, cachexia may appear.
Symptom 3: bone metastases are mostly characterized by bone pain, which has a serious impact on patients. The curative effect of radiotherapy and chemotherapy on advanced malignant tumors is still not optimistic, which can not avoid the metastasis and recurrence of cancer tissue, reduce the patient's immunity, form a vicious circle, make the patient's condition worse, accelerate the malignant transformation and death of the disease.
matters needing attention
Many patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma are multiple bone metastases, single bone metastasis is relatively rare, so we must be clear, early detection of nasopharyngeal carcinoma, early treatment measures, in order to avoid deterioration of nasopharyngeal carcinoma, bone metastasis to the treatment of nasopharyngeal carcinoma bring unnecessary trouble.
