Can advanced breast cancer be cured?

Breast cancer is generally divided into three stages: early, middle and late. Generally speaking, if early breast cancer is treated correctly in a regular hospital, the cure rate can reach more than 95%, because early breast cancer is not serious, cancer cells do not spread, the condition is not obvious, and the tumor is generally less than 2 cm.

In the middle stage of breast cancer, the condition is slightly more serious, and the tumor size is generally between 2cm and 5cm. At this time, the cancer cells are about to metastasize, and the tumor will also affect the surrounding lymphatic tissue. If you receive regular treatment for middle stage breast cancer, the cure rate is about 50%. In the late stage of breast cancer, the condition is serious, the cancer cells spread in large quantities, the tumor is more than 5cm, and the cancer cells affect the lymphatic tissue. In the late stage of breast cancer, it is difficult to cure, but if you receive active treatment, there is a great hope to prolong the patient's life.

Patients with advanced tumors have a heavy psychological burden, and the incidence of depression and anxiety is higher than that of ordinary people. Now more and more scholars have shown great interest in psychological and behavioral intervention for tumor patients and have conducted a lot of research.

If breast cancer is in the late stage, the patient will probably have desperate thoughts. At this time, family companionship is very important. Having a family can give them a sense of security and let them know that it is not only themselves who are at risk. Of course, in the later stages, they must also pay attention to nutritional intake and ultimately cannot ignore nutritional supply.
