What should you pay attention to when you have nasopharyngeal cancer? What should you not eat when you are sick?

Patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma should pay attention to the following matters in their daily life:

1. Pay attention to climate changes, prevent colds, maintain nasopharyngeal hygiene, gargle several times a day, and clean the nasopharyngeal cavity when necessary to avoid viral infection.

2. Eat more grains, choose lean meat, and eat more fruits and vegetables in your daily diet. Eat more foods containing antioxidants and increase fiber intake. Try to avoid harmful fumes such as kerosene lamps, pesticides, etc., and actively quit smoking and drinking.

3. Eat a balanced diet, eat more vegetables and fruits, eat less or no salted fish, pickles, smoked meat, bacon and other foods containing nitrosamines, avoid spicy foods, and avoid excessive drinking. If you find blood in your nasal discharge or spit out blood in your nasal discharge after sniffing, swollen lymph nodes in the neck, effusion in the middle ear and other unexplained reasons, you should check your nasopharynx in time.

4. Patients with nasopharyngeal cancer should pay attention to lifestyle adjustments and avoid excessive physical labor: heavy physical labor, staying up late, excessive physical exercise, etc., will cause an imbalance in the body's internal environment, reduce resistance, and promote the occurrence and spread of nasopharyngeal cancer.

Patients with nasopharyngeal cancer should pay more attention to the above matters and avoid eating the following foods during the illness:

1. After suffering from nasopharyngeal cancer, patients should pay attention to eating spicy and aphrodisiac foods.

2. Do not eat aphrodisiac foods, such as mutton, dog meat, goose meat, pigeons, sparrows, etc. Many animals contain hormones.

3. After suffering from nasopharyngeal cancer, you should also be careful not to eat high-iodine foods. If nasopharyngeal cancer patients eat seafood such as crabs, shrimps, scaleless fish, kelp, etc., including iodine foods and iodized salt, the tumor will rupture.
