How to cure lymphoma

summary

Grandfather used to make a living by helping others decorate. He did it from his youth until last year. In August last year, grandfather often felt very tired. He would sweat a lot at night and have a fever every two days. Moreover, he lost a lot of weight. Uncle was not at ease, so he took grandfather to the hospital for examination. As a result, he was diagnosed with lymphoma. Later, after treatment, my grandfather's condition improved. The next topic I want to talk about is how to cure lymphoma.

How to cure lymphoma

First: radiotherapy: radiotherapy is to irradiate the tumor site with high-energy rays to kill tumor cells. At present, it is mainly local field related radiotherapy. Radiotherapy plays an important role in some subtypes of lymphoma, such as t / NK cell lymphoma. But radiotherapy also has short-term and long-term side effects. The common short-term side effects are skin reaction, leucopenia and so on.

Second: hematopoietic stem cell transplantation: hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is divided into bone marrow stem cell transplantation, peripheral blood stem cell transplantation and umbilical cord blood stem cell transplantation. According to the way of transplantation, it can be divided into autologous stem cell transplantation and allogeneic stem cell transplantation. Autologous stem cell transplantation is easy to relapse. The effect of allogeneic stem cell transplantation is better, but the basic conditions of patients are high, the treatment cost is also high, and the immune response of patients may appear.

Third: radiotherapy: some types of lymphoma can be treated with radiotherapy alone in the early stage. Radiotherapy can also be used for consolidation therapy after chemotherapy and adjuvant therapy during transplantation.

Finally, I would like to tell you one more thing: (1) avoid coffee and other exciting drinks. (2) Avoid onion, garlic, ginger, cinnamon and other spicy food. (3) salt and sugar restriction: the intake of salt should not be too much. According to the differences in dietary habits, the daily intake of salt for adults should be 3-10 g, and the maximum should not exceed 15 G. Sugar should be eaten as little as possible to prevent diseases without affecting the absorption and utilization of other nutrients.
