Is asthma normal after lung cancer surgery?

Asthma is generally normal after lung cancer surgery, and lifestyle and dietary care should be strengthened after surgery.

Lung cancer is a malignant tumor that originates from the lung bronchial mucosa or glands. Its formation is related to long-term smoking, occupational exposure, ionizing radiation, etc. There are no obvious discomfort symptoms in the early stage. As the tumor volume increases, it will cause compression on the lung tissue, mainly manifested as irregular chest pain or dull pain, and will also affect the normal structure and ventilation function of the lungs, mainly manifested as cough, bloody sputum and other symptoms.

Under the guidance of a doctor, patients can be treated with lung resection. After surgical treatment, the tumor can be removed, the condition can be controlled, and the discomfort symptoms can be improved. Since lung cancer surgery is a traumatic surgery, the lung tissue cannot fully return to normal in a short period of time, so ventilation dysfunction may occur. Anesthetic drugs need to be injected before surgery, which cannot be completely metabolized by the body immediately in a short period of time, so postoperative asthma may also occur. This is a normal phenomenon after surgery. Generally, as the body continues to recover, the discomfort symptoms can be improved and disappear.

After lung cancer surgery, patients should pay more attention to rest, avoid heavy physical labor, and avoid strenuous exercise such as running and playing badminton. Pay attention to a balanced diet and go to the hospital for regular checkups according to the doctor's advice to understand the specific recovery situation.
