How to prevent laryngeal cancer in life

Many people will lose their precious lives due to laryngeal cancer, which directly and seriously affects their health. We need to pay attention to reasonable adjustments, and do not smoke, do not drink, stay away from some chemical substances. At the same time, we should also pay attention to maintaining good eating habits. How can we effectively prevent laryngeal cancer?

1. No smoking. Smoking directly damages organs and causes laryngeal cancer. The longer you smoke, the higher the incidence rate. Nicotine, coal tar and benzopyrene produced by cigarettes are all carcinogens.

2. Do not drink excessively. Long-term heavy drinking will cause congestion and edema in the throat, and lead to malnutrition and low immune function, laying the foundation for the formation of cancer.

3. Stay away from chemical carcinogens. Chemical carcinogens related to laryngeal cancer include sulfur dioxide, chromium, arsenic, etc. The living and working environment is polluted by air. Inhaling the above harmful gases and dust will damage the throat, so protection must be done.

4. Pay attention to precancerous lesions. Laryngeal leukoplakia is a precancerous lesion of laryngeal cancer. It is a white patch on the mucosa of the vocal cords due to poor keratinization. It is a pathological change caused by upper respiratory tract infection, smoking, harmful gas stimulation, excessive voice use, etc. It is closely related to the formation of laryngeal cancer and must be actively prevented and treated. There are also laryngeal keratosis, chronic hypertrophic laryngitis, papilloma, etc., which need to be closely observed and actively prevented and treated.

5. Beware of the harm of bad eating habits. Some people often eat hot pot with friends regardless of winter or summer. The spicy hot pot is stimulating, and they also smoke and drink constantly. This is harmful not only to the throat, but also to the eyes, trachea, lungs, esophagus, stomach, etc. It can cause diseases and worsen into cancer.

6. Be cautious when exposed to radiation. Radiation is a carcinogen. When the neck is examined or treated multiple times or in large doses, it is necessary to protect it from damage, otherwise it will create conditions for the formation of laryngeal cancer. In normal times, try to reduce radiation examinations.

What are the nursing measures for patients with laryngeal cancer?

1. For laryngeal cancer care, observe the bleeding tendency. If the neck blood vessel ligation is found to be slipped or the innominate vein or artery is ruptured and bleeding, press the bleeding point immediately, report to the doctor immediately and actively cooperate with the rescue.

2. If symptoms such as sudden local swelling, extreme difficulty breathing, and increased pulse rate occur, it should be considered that the cancer is necrotic and bleeding and is compressing the trachea. Notify the doctor in time and prepare for treatment immediately.

3. Nursing for laryngeal cancer: After surgery, it is strictly forbidden to eat or drink water through the mouth. Do not swallow saliva. Keep the mouth clean to promote wound healing. Pay attention to whether there is exudate and bleeding in the wound, pay attention to changes in body temperature, and prevent anastomotic fistula.

4. Before surgery, you should have a comprehensive physical examination regularly and timely according to the doctor's instructions, and observe whether there are any discomfort symptoms in your body. Chemotherapy and radiotherapy are very necessary before surgery to promote the smooth progress of the surgery.

Usually, we need to pay attention to the factors that may cause the disease to break out, and in daily life, we should pay attention to getting more rest and taking comprehensive health care. We usually need to pay attention to our own conditioning, and pay attention to scientific treatment to avoid causing serious illness. I hope everyone will smoke less, drink less, and stay away from tobacco and alcohol, so that we can effectively prevent the disease.
