Combining Chinese and Western medicine to treat brain cancer is effective

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that brain cancer is caused by internal injuries caused by the seven emotions, which lead to dysfunction of the internal organs, as well as invasion of external evil, conflict between cold and heat, and accumulation of phlegm and turbidity in a certain part of the body for a long time. Analyzing the symptoms of brain cancer, such as headache, paralysis, hearing and vision impairment, most of them are common symptoms of insufficient liver and kidney function. The liver and kidney have the same origin. The liver governs the tendons and stores blood, while the kidney stores essence, governs the bones and connects to the marrow, which connects to the brain. They are mutually beneficial in physiology and mutually affect each other in pathology.

Therefore, in terms of treatment, Chinese medicine first starts with attacking brain diseases, while also regulating overall functions. As Western medicine treatment methods and examination methods continue to improve, Chinese medicine can also borrow modern scientific examination methods (modern medicine's diagnosis of brain tumors is becoming more and more mature, using CT and MRI for preoperative positioning and preliminary qualitative diagnosis) to conduct brain tumor research and treatment with Chinese medicine and Chinese herbal medicine, and can achieve very good results.

The combined use of Chinese and Western medicine to treat brain cancer is more effective than using either alone. In clinical practice, there are also cases where Western medicine cannot treat or fails to treat, but Chinese medicine alone can completely cure them. Of course, this depends on the patient's specific condition. In addition, there are currently few doctors who can use Chinese medicine alone to treat brain cancer, and even fewer who can achieve satisfactory results. Therefore, patients do not have to demand that they must only use Chinese medicine for treatment. Chinese medicine and Western medicine are not contradictory, and the effect is better when combined.
