Is the effect of traditional Chinese medicine on nasopharyngeal carcinoma good
summary
I knew that I had nasopharyngeal carcinoma in July this year. Because it was early, I had been treated all the time, but I felt that the effect of treatment was not very good. Today, let me learn from you the effect of traditional Chinese medicine in treating nasopharyngeal carcinoma, OK?
Is the effect of traditional Chinese medicine on nasopharyngeal carcinoma good
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
The choice of surgical method can remove the primary tumor of the disease, and has a certain curative effect. For patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma with high differentiation or malignant mixed tumor, surgery can be the first choice. However, when bone destruction and infiltration of nasopharynx occur at the bottom of the brain, and cranial nerve damage and metastasis occur, it is not appropriate to choose the surgical method for radical treatment, so as to avoid the failure to achieve the expected surgical effect.
