What to do if advanced colon cancer has metastasized to the lymph nodes

If patients have advanced colon cancer metastasis, it is recommended to go to the hospital in time for treatment under the guidance of a doctor. Usually, surgical removal of the tumor, radiotherapy and chemotherapy can be used to relieve symptoms.

1. Surgical resection: Since the patient's condition is serious and has spread to distant organs, palliative surgery is required to completely remove the primary lesion and regional lymphatic tissue to achieve the purpose of controlling the disease;

2. Radiotherapy: For those who cannot tolerate or are not suitable for radical surgery, external irradiation alone or in combination with chemotherapy can be used to kill tumor cells. It can also be used for postoperative adjuvant therapy to prevent recurrence and local recurrence of lesions.

3. Chemotherapy: using anticancer drugs to kill the remaining cancer cells in the body. Commonly used drugs include capecitabine tablets, etc., but they have significant side effects and must be used under the guidance of professional doctors;

4. Targeted therapy: It is a new type of anti-tumor treatment method designed mainly for the mutation sites of malignant tumor genes. Commonly used drugs include bevacizumab injection, etc. It is suitable for patients who cannot tolerate traditional chemotherapy regimens.

You can also take Chinese medicine according to your own situation, such as taking Chinese patent medicines such as Shenqi Fuzheng Capsules and Huachansu Oral Liquid as prescribed by the doctor, which will help improve the discomfort. At the same time, you should also pay attention to a balanced diet and eat more protein-rich foods, such as egg custard and milk, to supplement the energy needed by the body.
