Treatment of mucosal injury during radiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma

How to deal with mucosal damage during radiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma?

1. Severe pharyngeal mucosal damage will use anti-inflammatory drugs or a small amount of hormones to control the aggravation of mucosal damage. Local local anesthesia can also be used to relieve pain. The purpose is to reduce mucosal damage and patient pain, so that patients can cooperate to complete radiotherapy and ultimately achieve a full course of radiotherapy.

2. Generally speaking, the symptoms of dry mouth will gradually ease after radiotherapy, but for some people, the dry mouth may not improve for a long time.

3. The recovery time of dry mouth after radiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma depends on the number of chemotherapy sessions, which is related to whether there is early intervention.

Why does nasopharyngeal cancer bleed?

This condition is nose bleeding caused by the expansion of cancer cells, which causes the internal capillaries to rupture. In the late stages of nasopharyngeal cancer, most symptoms are due to the destruction and shedding of tumor tissue. If nasopharyngeal cancer is found, relevant surgery is needed in a timely manner to avoid tumor metastasis.

Nasopharyngeal carcinoma bleeding may be due to tumor cell rupture and bleeding. We must go to the hospital in time to check related diseases, find out the cause and carry out targeted treatment.

During treatment, do not eat spicy, irritating, or greasy food, and eat a light diet. Nosebleeds from nasopharyngeal carcinoma are caused by the expansion of cancer cells.
