What to eat for advanced lung cancer

Lung cancer is a common malignant tumor of the respiratory system. The disease is asymptomatic in the early stage. As the tumor progresses, coughing, sputum, blood in sputum may occur, and it may also be accompanied by symptoms such as chest tightness, chest pain, and dyspnea. There is no special economic proposition for the diet of patients with lung cancer. It is mainly a high-calorie, high-protein diet, avoiding overly greasy, spicy and irritating foods.

Patients with advanced lung cancer cough and have a lot of sputum. It is best to eat more foods that clear the lungs and relieve coughs.

Can fiberoptic bronchoscopy diagnose lung cancer?

Bronchoscopy can play a big role in the diagnosis of lung cancer, especially for this type of luminal mass. Bronchoscopy can directly clamp the tissue for pathological biopsy, and the positive rate will be very high. If CT examination finds lung space-occupying lesions, bronchoscopic biopsy can be considered to take the lesion tissue for pathological diagnosis to determine whether it is a malignant tumor. However, some lung space-occupying lesions grow near the lung lobes and may not be accessible by bronchoscope. The purpose of CT puncture biopsy of the lesion is the same. Take a small amount of lesion tissue for pathological examination to confirm the diagnosis. Lung cancer can be diagnosed in some patients by fiberoptic bronchoscopy, while some lung cancers can only be diagnosed by other methods.
