How much does it cost to treat gastric cancer

We all know that cancer is a very scary disease. If not treated in time, it may cause the patient to lose his life. The current medical treatment is to remove cancer cells through surgery. Gastric cancer is also a cancer and can be removed through surgery. So how much does gastric cancer surgery cost? Will it be very expensive?

1. The cost of gastric cancer surgery varies according to the consumption level in different places and the degree of gastric cancer in the patient. However, most of the costs are around 50,000 yuan. Early gastric cancer can be cured through surgery, allowing the patient to live seven or eight more years. For mid- to late-stage gastric cancer, if the patient can bear the surgery, life can still be prolonged. If not, they can only undergo radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and conservative treatment with traditional Chinese medicine.

2. The symptoms of early gastric cancer are the same as those of gastric disease, except that it is a little more painful than gastric disease, especially in the abdomen, and often causes nausea. No one pays attention to early gastric cancer, and it is often in the middle or late stages by the time it is discovered. Gastric cancer is not completely cured after surgery, and postoperative care is also crucial. If the care is not good, cancer cells will recur and spread to other parts of the body.

3. Gastric cancer patients will have different treatment methods according to their age. If the patient's physical condition is very poor, surgery cannot be performed. The side effects of radiotherapy and chemotherapy are too great, and the patient simply cannot bear it. They can only use Chinese medicine to prolong their lives. For early-stage gastric cancer patients with better physical conditions, if they have undergone surgery and are well cared for, they can be discharged from the hospital soon, but they also need to go to the hospital regularly for stomach examinations.

After the operation, the patient must have had part or all of the stomach removed. Then in the future, you should eat small meals frequently. Eat several times a day and eat small amounts each time. This will meet the body's needs for physical nutrients. In addition, you should develop good eating habits. Eat regularly. Also, eat some foods that are easier to digest, and make reasonable combinations to ensure nutrition.

Secondly, after the operation, you should eat liquid food for a period of time to allow the stomach and intestines to adapt. You should gradually transition from liquid food and semi-liquid food to solid food. You should still choose foods that are easier to digest to avoid bloating, and do not eat foods that are easy to lose their position and cause bloating. Eat more foods containing protein, such as fish. It is easier for the human body to absorb and ensure nutrition. You should also eat some fresh fruits and vegetables appropriately, as well as foods with relatively high protein content, so that bowel movements are smooth and toxins are excreted.

After suffering from gastric cancer, patients must pay attention. In addition to timely treatment, they must also adjust their mentality and actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment to restore their body to health. Do not eat too hard food, which will hurt the stomach. Eat some food that can fight and prevent cancer, consume more nutrients from various aspects, and have three meals regularly.
