What to do if you have cancer

The emergence of various cancers poses a great threat to human life and health. Although there are many methods to treat cancer, in general, this type of disease is very difficult to treat and the prognosis is not very ideal. Given the harmfulness of cancer, many people do not even die from the disease, but the psychological impact is even greater. Therefore, it is important to handle it correctly. So, what should you do if you get cancer?

Adjust your mood and face the disease with a calm and positive attitude.

After getting cancer, many people will become very scared, and this mentality can only make the disease worse. Some people die within a few days or even that very night after knowing their illness. Why is this so? The psychological impact is huge. Even if a person does not get sick, such huge psychological pressure can overwhelm a healthy person.

"What you should fear is fear itself." Don't be afraid, face it bravely, keep a calm mind, and adjust to a positive and correct state, so that you can proceed well on the road of treatment.

Surgery, use Western medicine to remove the affected area first.

The characteristic of cancer is that a cancer cell can turn a normal and healthy cell into a cancer cell. It can also be simply understood that cancer cells are "contagious" in one's own body. After becoming cancerous, the cells and tissues no longer have the ability to maintain the normal working function of the human body, which means the death of the tissue.

Therefore, treating cancer is also a race against time. In order to prevent the cancerous areas from continuing to spread, Western medicine surgery is the treatment method that should be considered first. Removing the cancerous tissue is the top priority.

Treatment with chemotherapy and radiotherapy.

Many patients are averse to radiotherapy and chemotherapy. The reason is that while radiotherapy and chemotherapy kill cancer cells, they also have toxic side effects on the human body.

You should weigh the pros and cons based on your own situation to decide whether to undergo radiotherapy and chemotherapy, and the course of radiotherapy and chemotherapy.

The basis for measurement is whether the positive power of the body itself can counteract the negative power of the toxic side effects of radiotherapy and chemotherapy. In fact, it is a contest. People who are too old and whose body functions have aged, or who are in the late stages of cancer and whose body functions have deteriorated, are not suitable for radiotherapy and chemotherapy. You can do radiotherapy and chemotherapy, but the treatment must be done in moderation, within your own tolerance. If the treatment is excessive, it will be counterproductive.

During radiotherapy and chemotherapy, you should take the medicine prescribed by your doctor to counteract its toxic side effects.

During radiotherapy and chemotherapy, the doctor will prescribe some medicine and ask the patient's family to buy the medicine themselves at the pharmacy.

These drugs are used to combat the toxic side effects caused by radiotherapy and chemotherapy. There are drugs that protect the spleen and stomach, the liver, the nerves, combat leukopenia, and so on.

Drink Chinese medicine and use traditional Chinese medicine to regulate the internal environment and assist in treatment.

It is best to start taking Chinese medicine before surgery, which will help with recovery from surgery.

After radiotherapy and chemotherapy, the patient's gastrointestinal function declines, and he or she has no appetite and cannot eat. Without nutritional supplements, this is not good for the body's recovery and rehabilitation. Drinking Chinese medicine during this period can make the feeling of nausea and regurgitation less severe.

After surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy, you should also continue to use traditional Chinese medicine for treatment. The ability to get cancer indicates that the internal environment of the body is unbalanced and needs to be adjusted. This is a slow process, but if you want to get rid of the root of the problem, you can't do it quickly. Slow work produces fine results. You should drink the Chinese medicine for at least one year, and then you can drink it for a few more months in the spring when the disease is most prevalent each year.

Reflect on and analyze your previous living habits to find out the cause of your illness.

Everything has a cause and an effect. There is no water without roots. The same is true for illness. It may be an external environmental problem or it may be a problem with one's own lifestyle habits, but there must be a reason.

Think back on your past life experiences and try hard to find the reasons. Doing this is not to give up on yourself, but to avoid the factors that make you sick from appearing again in your life in the future and to solve the problem fundamentally.

Change bad living habits and develop healthy living habits.

It is not easy to do anything well. It is not easy to get healthy or maintain health. It takes hard work to achieve results.

Healthy living habits bring lifelong benefits. Whether you are sick or healthy, doing this can protect your body to the greatest extent and prevent you from getting sick.

Healthy living habits should achieve these four points:

A balanced diet, quality sleep, moderate exercise, and a good attitude. In addition, you should quit bad habits such as smoking and drinking.

Habits are things you do repeatedly. Health needs to be maintained every day and throughout your life.

Keep in touch with your treating doctor and have regular checkups.

Recovery and treatment for cancer do not end after surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy, and the possible recurrence of cancer must be faced.

After surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy, regular physical examinations are required, and there are many indicators and tests to determine the possibility of cancer recurrence.

Physical examination is very important. It can help you know your physical condition in a timely and accurate manner and take countermeasures quickly.
