What should you pay attention to in home care for lymphoma

Experts point out that in addition to general care, the nursing work for lymphoma also requires symptomatic care based on the patient's condition. Due to various factors, patients often cannot receive specialized care from nurses, which requires the patient's family to have a relevant understanding of the nursing knowledge of lymphoma and make correct nursing countermeasures in time. So what should be paid attention to in family care for lymphoma? Let's take a look at the experts' introduction.

1. Fever is a common symptom, and the corresponding care for lymphoma should be carried out according to routine fever care, such as cooling down, taking medicine, etc.
2. When breathing is difficult, high-flow oxygen inhalation, semi-recumbent position, and appropriate sedatives are given. In this regard, the care of lymphoma requires that the patient's family members have a certain understanding of the use of medical equipment and cannot rely solely on nurses.
3. When bones are infiltrated, the nursing requirements for lymphoma are to let patients reduce their activities, prevent trauma, and when pathological fractures occur, give appropriate treatment based on the location of the fracture.
The above is the relevant knowledge introduced by experts. Experts remind: Don’t underestimate the care of lymphoma. If it is not handled in time, it is likely to affect the treatment effect of the patient and even endanger the patient’s life. In addition, when suffering from cancer, the patient will have a lot of psychological pressure. Family members should pay attention to communicating with the patient more and slowly relieve the pressure when caring for lymphoma.
