How to prevent recurrence of breast cancer

summary

A few years ago, my cousin suffered from breast cancer. Fortunately, the disease was soon under control. However, recently, my cousin found that her body was abnormal and her breast was a little painful. She realized the seriousness of the problem. Now let me talk about how to prevent the recurrence of breast cancer.

How to prevent recurrence of breast cancer

First, avoid all kinds of factors that promote the recurrence of breast cancer. The patients of childbearing age should avoid pregnancy and lactation for a long time after operation; maintain a scientific and civilized lifestyle, do not smoke, limit alcohol intake, avoid using cosmetic products with high estrogen content, and minimize the chance of exposure to radiation and electromagnetic radiation.

Second, adhere to self-examination and regular review. Self examination is an effective method for early detection of recurrence and metastasis of breast cancer. We should often and carefully observe whether there are abnormal changes in the chest wall, whether there are papular changes, and pay attention to the surface color and texture. If there are enlarged lymph nodes or abnormal nodules in the contralateral breast, axillary fossa and supraclavicular fossa, once the abnormality is found, it should be diagnosed and treated by a specialist immediately. In order to prevent recurrence, we should also go to the hospital regularly for reexamination. Generally, within two years after operation, we should reexamine every three months, then every six months, and every year after five years.

Third: actively participate in physical exercise, keep optimistic mood and good attitude, develop scientific eating habits, eat less high-fat, smoked and barbecue food, eat more fresh vegetables, fruits, bean products, dairy products, fish, etc. All kinds of fungi such as Lentinus edodes, Poria cocos, Auricularia auricula and Hericium erinaceus are natural biological regulators, which can enhance the body's immunity and have certain anti-cancer effect.

matters needing attention

In the treatment of breast cancer, we must not ignore the postoperative care, after all, the recurrence of this disease is still relatively large. At ordinary times, we should pay attention to develop good living habits, eat more vegetables and fruits rich in vitamins, strengthen exercise and improve immune ability.
