The author introduces how to take care of nasopharyngeal cancer patients who have bleeding noses when blowing their noses? What are the examination methods?

Nosebleed is one of the typical clinical symptoms of nasopharyngeal carcinoma. In the early stages of nasopharyngeal carcinoma, blood may be present in the nose or blood may be sucked back into the nose from the mouth. In the late stages of rhinitis, symptoms of heavy nose bleeding are more likely to occur.

As for nasopharyngeal cancer nose bleeding, it is best to consult clearly. If nasopharyngeal cancer patients have nose bleeding, the general care in life is as follows:

First: correct bad eating habits: do not eat salted fish and pickled products. If you live in a high-incidence area or have a family member with a history of nasopharyngeal cancer, you should have a regular physical examination of the nasopharynx every year, and you can draw blood to check for EB virus during the physical examination.

Second: Pay attention to diet. Patients with nasopharyngeal cancer and bleeding symptoms should consume more benign foods, such as bitter melon, tomato, water spinach, Houttuynia cordata, purslane, etc.

Third: Regularly do exercises such as neck rotation, teeth tapping, cheek puffing, smiling, and mouth opening. Patients with dry mouth can use pear slices in their mouths to relieve discomfort; patients with radiation pharyngitis can gargle with a mouthwash before meals and before going to bed.

The above are the care methods for nosebleeds, and the following are the methods for checking nasopharyngeal cancer.

What are the inspection methods?

1. Indirect nasopharyngeal endoscopy: The method is simple and practical. The nasopharyngeal vallecula, the posterior wall of the nasopharyngeal roof and the pharyngeal recesses on both sides should be examined in turn. The corresponding parts on both sides should be compared and observed. Any asymmetric submucosal protrusions or isolated nodules on both sides should be paid more attention.

2. Anterior rhinoscopy: After the nasal mucosa is contracted, the posterior nasal cavity and nasopharynx can be viewed through the anterior rhinoscopy, and tumors that have invaded or are adjacent to the nostrils can be detected.

Here I wish all patients a speedy treatment and recovery.
