Is there any cure for advanced lung cancer? A few things advanced lung cancer patients must know

To cure lung cancer, early treatment is necessary

Can lung cancer be cured? We are all familiar with this malignant disease, lung cancer. In many cases, this disease has a hidden onset and progresses rapidly. Patients are often caught off guard when they discover it. Can lung cancer be cured? Let's learn about it together.

Lung cancer has the highest incidence rate among malignant tumors and is prone to spread and metastasis. Patients with early-stage lung cancer consume a lot of energy and have weak constitutions, so they should pay special attention to timely nutritional supplementation. The diet should be rich and varied, with light and high nutrition as the principle. Patients can be advised to eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, and avoid spicy and irritating foods. While ensuring nutritional supply, the patient's immune resistance can be enhanced.

If lung cancer patients cough up phlegm, they must be allowed to cough it out by themselves as much as possible. If they really can't cough it out, they can use a phlegm suction device. When sleeping, pay attention to lying on one side with the head tilted to prevent suffocation by phlegm. If the patient suddenly loses his voice, changes his complexion, or stops breathing, it is necessary to report to the doctor immediately and rescue him urgently. If lung cancer is treated actively in the early stage, the effect is still quite obvious.

Can lung cancer be cured? Experts point out: If you want to cure lung cancer, you must treat it in time to improve the cure rate. Lung cancer is a local manifestation of a systemic disease. The so-called systemic disease, first of all, is based on the premise of deficiency of vital energy and low immune function. Secondly, cancer cells are easy to spread, and metastasis to nearby or distant parts will occur in the early stage. Local manifestation refers to the local appearance of cancerous masses. Low immune function of the body is the root of the disease, and local cancerous masses are the symptoms of the disease. If you want a good treatment effect for lung cancer, while surgically removing the cancerous mass, you should also adopt comprehensive measures based on Chinese medicine to treat both the symptoms and the root cause.

Is there any cure for advanced lung cancer?

Many family members come to ask: Is there any treatment for advanced lung cancer?

Treatment of advanced lung cancer

1. Treatment of advanced lung cancer with traditional Chinese medicine Lung cancer is a common malignant tumor in my country, mostly occurring in women. It seriously threatens people's lives. At present, the treatment methods for lung cancer include surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy and traditional Chinese medicine. Clinically, choosing the best treatment method for advanced lung cancer can achieve better results. According to the patient's own immune tolerance and the different degrees of tumor development, choosing scientific symptomatic palliative conservative treatment is the best treatment for advanced lung cancer. Most lung cancer patients have already developed symptoms of metastasis to different parts of the body when diagnosed, and have missed the treatment opportunities of local surgery and radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Therefore, traditional Chinese medicine treatment is currently the best choice for patients with advanced lung cancer.

2. Surgical treatment of lung cancer Many family members or patients have misunderstandings about the treatment of advanced lung cancer, believing that surgery is necessary no matter what, and that if surgery is not possible, the patient will soon die. In fact, the results are often the opposite. Although surgery can remove lung lesions, due to the poor physical condition and low immunity of patients with advanced lung cancer, surgery often causes them to suffer a great loss of vitality and a sharp decline in their quality of life. If they do not cooperate with systemic treatment, the good times often do not last long, leading to tumor recurrence or metastasis, especially for small cell lung cancer.

3. Chemotherapy for lung cancer Small cell lung cancer develops rapidly, has a prominent tendency to spread throughout the body, and is highly sensitive to chemotherapy. The 5-year survival rate has increased from 1% to more than 10%, so chemotherapy has become a major treatment for small cell lung cancer. However, for patients with advanced lung cancer, the chemotherapy cycle should generally not exceed 4 to 6 cycles. However, many people want to improve the efficacy through high-dose chemotherapy, but contrary to their wishes, excessive aggressive treatment not only fails to prolong survival, but also reduces the patient's quality of life, making the symptoms of patients with advanced lung cancer worse and making them miserable.

4. Radiotherapy Radiotherapy can alleviate the symptoms of 70% of patients with advanced lung cancer. External radiotherapy with different doses and fractions can relieve local symptoms of primary or metastatic lesions. However, patients with advanced lung cancer often die hastily due to the strong toxic side effects and complications of radiotherapy. While enduring the torture of cancer, they also have to endure the toxic side effects of radiotherapy and other treatments, such as chest pain, nausea, vomiting, hair loss, fatigue, etc., and their quality of life is extremely poor.
