The ear stuffiness of nasopharyngeal cancer improved after treatment and then became stuffy again

1. The original main treatment method was radiotherapy, which can cause a series of complications, mainly radiation encephalopathy, atrophy of the nasal mucosa, and damage to the auditory nerve. If these complications occur, only symptomatic treatment can be given, and partial recovery will occur after radiotherapy is stopped.

2. Edema of the Eustachian tube pharyngeal opening will cause changes in the pressure in the patient's ear canal, resulting in a feeling of stuffiness in the ear clinically.

3. If nasopharyngeal carcinoma grows, the tumor may affect the pharyngeal opening of the Eustachian tube.

Can recurrent and liver metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma be cured?

Nasopharyngeal carcinoma is a type of cancer. As the disease progresses, liver metastasis will occur. Even in the late stage of cancer, it is generally more difficult to treat and is generally not easy to completely cure. Patients are advised to adjust their mentality, undergo conservative treatment, and control the progression of the disease.

If nasopharyngeal carcinoma metastasizes to the liver, it means that it is already an advanced tumor and is quite malignant. In this case, the survival rate is generally relatively low. However, nasopharyngeal carcinoma responds well to radiotherapy, but the effect is not ideal in the late stage. Chinese medicine can be used for comprehensive conditioning.

Recurrence of nasopharyngeal carcinoma and metastasis to the liver are generally in the middle or late stages.
