Fever after bladder cancer surgery

If bladder cancer is already very serious, surgical treatment is necessary, but sometimes there will be unexpected situations, such as fever after bladder cancer surgery. What is the reason for fever after bladder cancer surgery? How to deal with it?

The initial clinical manifestation of bladder cancer is hematuria, which is usually painless, intermittent, and visible throughout the entire process. Sometimes it can also be microscopic hematuria. Hematuria may only occur once or last for 1 to several days. It may be relieved or stopped on its own. Sometimes the coincidence of taking medication and hematuria stopping on its own often gives the patient the illusion of "recovery". Some patients may have hematuria again after a certain period of time. The color of hematuria ranges from light red to dark brown, and is often dark red.

Bladder cancer is a type of cancer, and the main reasons why cancer patients have fever are: on the one hand, cancer cells affect the body's ability to regulate body temperature; on the other hand, most patients have reduced immunity due to the tumor itself or treatment, especially patients with low white blood cell counts, who often have fevers caused by infections. If the fever is caused by low white blood cell counts, it is currently recommended to actively increase white blood cell counts (injections, raise to 4,000 or even 10,000 or more) and appropriate anti-inflammatory treatment.

On the other hand, cancer is a local manifestation of a systemic disease. Although the local tumor has been removed, it is powerless against the cancer cells remaining in the blood and lymph. Therefore, systemic consolidation treatment with traditional Chinese medicine must be performed after surgery.

However, it is recommended to find out the cause and treat symptomatically if there is infection in the wound after surgery, inflammation can also cause fever, or recurrence of the disease can cause tumor fever. Patients can take anti-tumor Chinese patent medicine oral liquid after surgery, which can speed up recovery, promote wound healing and tissue repair, relieve pain, consolidate and strengthen the results of surgery, eliminate tiny lesions and residual tumor cells that cannot be removed by surgery, and prevent tumor recurrence and metastasis.
