Treatment of rectal cancer with traditional Chinese Medicine

Treatment 1: the treatment of rectal cancer is a comprehensive treatment based on surgery. According to the results of pathological examination, imaging examination and so on, we decided the specific way of operation, and explained with the patient and his family that it is possible to make a colostomy, which is often said to be a diversion. This will cause great pressure on the patients' daily life and psychology. We should fully explain the reasons for doing so, the method of operation and the daily nursing after operation to the patients, strive for the understanding and cooperation of the patients and their families, and minimize the pain caused by the diversion.

Treatment 2: due to bed rest and fasting after surgery, smoking cessation before surgery, practice urination in bed to reduce the inconvenience caused by bed rest after surgery.

Treatment 3: radiotherapy and chemotherapy are divided into adjuvant therapy and neoadjuvant therapy. Neoadjuvant therapy is actually preoperative radiotherapy and chemotherapy, and the concept of adjuvant therapy is postoperative radiotherapy and chemotherapy. At present, for rectal cancer, neoadjuvant chemotherapy and radiotherapy are recommended before surgery for patients with tumor invading muscle layer or positive lymph nodes. Now the trend is to advocate concurrent radiotherapy and chemotherapy Yes.

matters needing attention

As family members, it is very important to support patients when they are sick. Many family members should hide their worries from patients. But in fact, on the contrary, it is good for patients to understand their illness and stabilize their mood. They should face the reality as soon as possible and cooperate with treatment to face it with a more positive attitude.
