Postoperative treatment of nasopharyngeal carcinoma
summary
Many NPC patients and their families should understand that radiotherapy is the first choice for NPC patients, but for patients with poorly differentiated NPC (with or without distant metastasis), it can be combined with chemotherapy to achieve the purpose of radiotherapy efficiency and reduce the chance of distant metastasis. Since nasopharyngeal carcinoma can be treated with chemotherapy, how long it takes for nasopharyngeal carcinoma to be treated with chemotherapy naturally becomes the concern of many patients. Here I would like to share with you the postoperative treatment of nasopharyngeal carcinoma
Postoperative treatment of 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, traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma not only has the same therapeutic effect as surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy, but also can increase the body's immunity, and avoid the serious damage to the body caused by surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy. The traditional Chinese medicine treatment of advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma starts from the etiology, carries on the overall treatment to the patients, enhances the patients' autoimmune function, and effectively suppresses the development of cancer. Traditional Chinese medicine treatment of nasopharyngeal carcinoma is based on syndrome differentiation. It can simultaneously treat primary cancer and metastatic lesions, comprehensively kill cancer cells and inhibit the further development of tumor.
matters needing attention
In the late stage of nasopharyngeal carcinoma, the daily diet of patients is also crucial, and surgical treatment is the best and most effective method. But postoperative infection, cancer cells are easy to transfer and spread, so also with chemotherapy. Some components of traditional Chinese medicine can also control cancer cells.
