What is the cause of vomiting blood in late stage of nasopharyngeal carcinoma

What is the cause of vomiting blood in late-stage nasopharyngeal carcinoma?

1. Patients with advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma can use intravenous hemostatic drugs to control vomiting symptoms. When vomiting is severe, blood volume supplementation and injection of red blood cell suspension are required to improve symptoms.

2. It is recommended that patients go to the hospital in time to receive treatment and improve their quality of life. If nasopharyngeal cancer causes coughing up blood, it is likely because the nasopharyngeal tumor ruptures and bleeds, and then the blood flows along the nasopharynx into the throat, and then the symptom of coughing up blood appears.

3. Nasopharyngeal carcinoma invades surrounding tissues, such as the pterygopalatine fossa, causing rupture of blood vessels in adjacent tissues, and then symptoms of massive bleeding occur.

Swelling and pain in the temple and behind the ear after chemotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma

After radiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma, the temples and ear roots are swollen and painful, and local soft tissue is damaged. It takes a certain amount of time to repair. Pay attention to functional exercise. Salivary gland damage leads to reduced secretions and dry mouth. It is recommended to drink more water. Sour fruits and Chinese medicine can dispel evil and soften the knots. Middle ear edema after radiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma may be a symptom of the cancer itself.

On the other hand, radiotherapy complications cannot be ruled out. In this case, glucocorticoids can be taken appropriately to see if the symptoms can be relieved.
