Will benign intestinal cancer recur if I don't have chemotherapy after resection?

Will benign colorectal cancer recur if chemotherapy is not given after resection? This is a question that many patients are concerned about. Relevant experts have suggested that chemotherapy is not necessary after surgery for benign tumors. However, good nursing care is necessary to facilitate recovery from the disease. Let's take a look at the following introduction.

1. Let the patient master the application method of the anal bag. Before using the anal bag, the surrounding skin should be cleaned with clean water. The anal bag should be appropriately tight and cleaned at any time to avoid infection and reduce odor.

2. Provide dietary guidance to patients. They can eat only after intestinal peristalsis is restored. Eat easily digestible food and avoid food that is too watery or contains too much crude fiber. Eat more soy products, eggs, fish, etc. to make the stool dry and easy to clean.

3. Teach patients to properly control the intensity of activities to avoid excessive activities that increase abdominal pressure and cause prolapse of the artificial anal mucosa.

4. Instruct the patient on how to care for the artificial rectum and perform digital dilation regularly. If stenosis or difficulty in defecation is found, go to the hospital for a follow-up examination in time.

5. Perform sitz bath therapy in a sitz bath on a daily basis. The water temperature of the sitz bath should be above 40°C, once in the morning and once in the evening. Because cancer cells cannot survive above 40 degrees Celsius, it can inhibit cancer cells. Therefore, you should insist on sitz bathing every day, choose a professional sitz bath, which is comfortable, so that you can insist on regular sitz bathing. Postoperative care for rectal cancer cannot be neglected. Timely care should be done to make the patient's body recover faster and avoid economic losses again. It is best to have auxiliary nursing treatment after rectal cancer surgery, so that the effect of the surgery will be shown vividly.
