What to do if you have vomiting due to esophageal cancer

The vomiting symptoms of esophageal cancer patients may be caused by tumor blocking the esophagus, adverse reactions after medication, or tumor metastasis to the stomach. Surgery, drug replacement, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy are required.

1. Tumor blocking the esophagus: When the tumor blocks the esophagus, food does not pass smoothly through the esophagus and cannot be vomited out. This causes vomiting symptoms in patients with esophageal cancer. At this time, anti-tumor treatment is needed, such as surgical treatment, which can significantly improve food obstruction. Radiotherapy can significantly improve esophageal stenosis.

2. Adverse reactions after medication: Esophageal cancer patients will use a lot of drugs during treatment. If the patient has adverse reactions to one or more drugs, he will vomit. At this time, the drug needs to be changed to relieve the symptoms.

3. Gastric tumor metastasis: When the gastric tumor of esophageal cancer patients metastasizes, it will affect the stomach and cause vomiting symptoms in patients. At this time, radiotherapy and chemotherapy are needed to control the disease and relieve vomiting symptoms.

In addition to the above reasons, there may be other reasons, such as indigestion. It is recommended to go to the hospital in time for treatment, complete the examination, clarify the cause of the disease, and give targeted treatment or treatment under the guidance of the doctor.
