Elderly and frail patients with lung cancer in the late stage should receive conservative treatment

The patient is a 61-year-old male with advanced lung cancer. He has a poor diet and a very poor physical condition. What treatment method is best for him?

Lung cancer occurs in the bronchial mucosal epithelium and is also called bronchial lung cancer. It generally refers to cancer in the lung parenchyma. Lung cancer ranks first among the causes of cancer death in the world. It usually occurs in the elderly and weak, and those with chronic bronchitis and emphysema.

Experts believe that the symptoms of advanced lung cancer vary depending on the patient's physical condition. In the advanced stage of lung cancer, the condition is more serious and requires timely symptomatic treatment. Patients are older and have poor physical conditions. Surgery and chemotherapy may not be able to withstand the side effects of surgery and chemotherapy, leading to worsening of the condition or even death. In this case, conservative treatment with traditional Chinese medicine can be used. Traditional Chinese medicine selectively kills cancer cells without damaging normal cells, and helps restore the body's immunity. It can fight cancer without toxic side effects, can quickly improve clinical symptoms, improve and protect the body's immune function, can overall inhibit and directly kill cancer cells, and significantly inhibit the metastasis and spread of cancer cells.

Late-stage lung cancer is generally more serious, with chest pain being the most typical symptom. If the tumor invades the left side of the mediastinum and compresses the recurrent laryngeal nerve, it can cause hoarseness, in addition to shortness of breath, pleural effusion, etc. In the late stage of lung cancer, there may also be some respiratory complications, such as sputum retention, atelectasis, pneumonia, and respiratory insufficiency.
