Sequelae of brain tumor resection

The scientific name of brain tumor is intracranial tumor, which is a relatively common neurological disease. To completely cure a brain tumor, it is necessary to completely remove the source of the disease, so the best way is to remove the tumor through surgery. However, the nerves in the brain are complex and it is easy to leave many sequelae due to surgery. Therefore, patients need to go through a safe period after surgery to be considered to have passed the dangerous period, but they still need to pay more attention in the follow-up.

Brain tumor sequelae--Overview

Postoperative sequelae of brain tumor surgery refer to the sequelae left after surgical resection of a brain tumor. The existence of these symptoms is not caused by the presence of a brain tumor, because the brain tumor has been removed and cured at this time. The sequelae are caused by damage to neurological function caused by the tumor or surgery.

Sequelae of brain tumor--Details

During the surgical removal of the tumor, some brain nerve tissue is often damaged due to the adhesion of the tumor tissue to the brain tissue or the need for surgical removal, resulting in some corresponding clinical symptoms. Such as limb numbness, pain, movement problems, speech problems, etc. If a tumor cannot be completely removed, the presence of residual tumor will continue to compress the local brain tissue and cause various uncomfortable symptoms. Such as headache, dizziness, etc. These are all sequelae left over from brain tumor surgery, which require subsequent rehabilitation treatment to resolve. Through later rehabilitation treatment, damaged nerve cells can be repaired, nerve function compensation can be promoted, and nerve reflex pathways can be rebuilt, so that the patient's various functions can be restored and the patient's quality of life can be improved.

Treatment of sequelae of brain tumor

Traditional Chinese medicine has a strong holistic concept and often takes into account the patient's overall characteristics rather than just focusing on the cancer lesions themselves. Traditional Chinese medicine can correct certain imbalances in the body. Eliminate factors that cause tumor recurrence and reduce the chance of metastasis. Secondly, Chinese medicine has relatively little damage to healthy cells and generally will not cause new damage to physical strength due to the treatment itself. As cancer improves, physical strength will gradually recover and immunity will be gradually enhanced.
