How to take care of lung cancer in daily life? Lung cancer patients should pay attention to 5 daily care items

Cancer, everyone will get goose bumps when they hear it. This is because countless patients have lost their lives to cancer. Lung cancer has become a disease with extremely high mortality and morbidity in recent years. Experts believe that in this era of rapid development of medical technology, we have reason to believe that lung cancer can be cured. So, after getting lung cancer, what else should patients pay attention to under the treatment of advanced medical technology?

1. Emotional comfort is particularly important. When patients are diagnosed with lung cancer, it is normal for them to be extremely irritable, panicky, and unstable. At this time, the family members of the patients should not be too concerned or even quarrel with the patients. Scientific psychological counseling should be given to the patients, and they should be patiently comforted and persuaded so that they can have a good mentality to fight the disease.

2. Prevent infection. Prevent infection from worsening the condition. Lung cancer patients are most likely to have a fever. Therefore, patients should prevent pneumonia. When patients have a persistent cough, they can drink hot water to relieve throat irritation. If they cough up blood, they should be given hemostatic drugs. If they cough up a lot of blood, notify the doctor immediately and never handle it without authorization.

3. Confident and thoughtful life care. Lung cancer patients with more serious conditions may need to stay in bed for a long time and cannot turn over or get out of bed. At this time, caregivers or family members should take good care of them to prevent bedsores. Once bedsores occur, they will be difficult to cure and develop rapidly. In severe cases, large areas of skin will ulcerate.

4. Scientific and reasonable diet. Lung cancer patients who do not have difficulty swallowing should be free to choose their food. Without affecting the treatment, they should eat more foods rich in protein and carbohydrates to improve the quality of their diet and create good conditions for surgery. If the nutritional status is poor, it is difficult to tolerate the trauma of surgery, the postoperative healing is slow, and it is easy to get infected, which is not conducive to surgical recovery.

5. Eat fresh fruits in moderation every day. Fruits and vegetables are rich in vitamin C, which is a cancer suppressor that can block the formation of cancer cells. Garlic also contains anti-cancer substances. Develop good living and eating habits, have regular physical examinations, and get timely diagnosis and treatment.

Experts remind everyone: Although lung cancer brings unimaginable pain to patients and harm and suffering to their families, as long as the patient is still alive and well and uses modern advanced medicine as a "sword", never give up treatment!
