How to treat nasopharyngeal carcinoma
summary
My father-in-law is 52 years old. He was diagnosed with nasopharyngeal carcinoma. At the beginning, he suffered from neck pain. It was found that the operation was done by the destruction of cervical vertebrae 6. Now it is found that he is in the late stage of nasopharyngeal carcinoma. He is in good spirits at ordinary times. Now he has pain in his arm and a lump under his face. There is no other reaction. Now let's talk about how to treat nasopharyngeal carcinoma
How to treat nasopharyngeal carcinoma
First, traditional Chinese medicine has a strong holistic concept. Traditional Chinese medicine can often consider the characteristics of the patient's whole body, not just limited to the cancer focus itself. Chinese medicine conditioning can correct the body's dysfunction, remove tumor recurrence factors, reduce the chance of metastasis; secondly, traditional Chinese medicine has less damage to healthy cells, and generally will not cause new damage to physical strength due to the treatment itself. When the cancer gets better, physical strength will gradually recover, and gradually enhance immunity.
Second, nasopharyngeal carcinoma can be treated in hospital according to its condition. The nasopharynx is closely connected with many other important parts, so surgery is not the first choice for the treatment of nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Radiotherapy, chemotherapy and cellular immunotherapy are commonly used in the treatment of nasopharyngeal carcinoma. The side effects of radiotherapy and chemotherapy are relatively large, and the patients are often difficult to bear. Cellular immunotherapy can make up for the side effects of surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy, improve the immune ability of patients, and play a role in clearing the residual cancer cells.
Third: for patients with early nasopharyngeal carcinoma, it mainly depends on whether the appropriate treatment is taken in time. Generally speaking, the early stage of nasopharyngeal carcinoma is small and has no metastasis. The most effective treatment is surgical resection. The 5-year survival rate of early stage of lung cancer after resection can reach 60% - 90%. Radiotherapy and chemotherapy, traditional Chinese medicine and other treatment methods can be taken to prevent recurrence within a certain period of time after operation.
matters needing attention
If nasopharyngeal carcinoma gets timely and effective treatment, the survival rate is particularly high. Taking TCM treatment in the early stage can improve the immunity of patients and help to enhance their physical fitness. It will have a better effect if they insist on it for at least one year. For the operation, the treatment time is about a week, but the postoperative self-cultivation takes a long time.
