Nursing care for several common nasopharyngeal cancers

If you want to cure nasopharyngeal cancer as soon as possible, it is important to cooperate with the doctor's physical therapy, and the second is to do a good job of nursing. Next, I will tell you in detail what the nursing knowledge for nasopharyngeal cancer is.

1. Self-psychological counseling is one of the nursing methods for nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Usually, after a nasopharyngeal carcinoma patient is diagnosed, radiotherapy begins before he or she has time to adjust his or her mentality. With the emergence of side effects of radiotherapy, nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients may become depressed and pessimistic, and lose confidence in treatment. During this period, the mood of nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients fluctuates and is unstable, which affects treatment.

2. Oral self-care methods. During radiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma, since the parotid glands and salivary glands are within the irradiation range, the functions of the rib glands and salivary glands of nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients are suppressed after radiotherapy. The glandular secretions in the mouth decrease, and the self-cleaning function of the mouth disappears. Symptoms such as dry mouth, dry and painful throat, and oral ulcers are common. In order to alleviate these symptoms, a water bottle can be kept ready for nasopharyngeal carcinoma care. Nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients should often moisten their mouths, drink more than 250 ml of water a day, and often use honeysuckle and ophiopogon to soak water to moisten the oral mucosa. This is also one of the more effective ways to care for nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

The above is a detailed description of the nursing knowledge for nasopharyngeal carcinoma. I hope it can help everyone understand the knowledge of nasopharyngeal carcinoma in this regard and cure nasopharyngeal carcinoma as soon as possible.
