How can lung cancer extend life

How can lung cancer prolong life? Once a serious lung disease like lung cancer reaches the late stage, the effect of any treatment will be very small. Many patients' families hope that the patients can live longer and extend their lifespan. So how can we prolong the lifespan of lung cancer patients? Let me give you an introduction below, and I hope the introduction below can help you.

When patients become ill and their life span is affected, they are very scared. At this time, every patient hopes to cure the disease as soon as possible and prolong their life span. No matter what the disease is, the earlier the treatment, the better the effect. The same is true for cancer. Different causes of cancer and different degrees of cancer will have different effects after treatment. For cancer patients, any treatment will directly affect their life span. They should pay more attention to their physical condition and stay away from diseases.

At present, surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy are still the classic "three major weapons" for lung cancer, but biological therapy, psychotherapy, lifestyle intervention and other means cannot be ignored. Only by flexibly applying the above "weapons" and comprehensive treatment can the best effect be achieved. First of all, lung cancer must be diagnosed as soon as possible, including: whether it is lung cancer, pathological type, stage and even the assessment of the whole body condition. Secondly, a most appropriate treatment strategy should be formulated for the patient. For example, for early patients, surgery is the best choice. Some patients need chemotherapy after surgery to prevent recurrence and improve the efficacy of surgery. As for the dose and frequency of chemotherapy, it needs to be flexibly controlled. Too much will cause harm, and too little will "tolerate evil". For patients with local advanced stage, chemotherapy can be used first to reduce the stage and create conditions for surgery. For absolutely advanced patients who have lost the opportunity for surgery, chemotherapy can be used to control tumor progression and relieve symptoms. Finally, even if the operation is very successful, you can't be careless after surgery. Measures such as traditional Chinese medicine to strengthen the body, psychological support, and lifestyle intervention must keep up.

Lung cancer is a type of cancer that people are afraid of. Clinically, different patients have different physical conditions and suffer from different severity of lung cancer symptoms, which leads to different treatment effects, which in turn affects the life expectancy of patients with advanced lung cancer. If lung cancer is discovered in time, the timing, method and effect of resection are also good, then the patient will live longer.
