How to care for liver cancer patients with fever? Prevention of liver cancer should start from these five points

Liver cancer is a highly malignant tumor with a high mortality rate. Most liver cancer patients are young and middle-aged. Therefore, we must do a good job of prevention in our daily lives. Let's learn about the prevention methods of liver cancer.

Prevention of liver cancer should start from little things

1. Quit drinking

Do not drink strong liquor or low-quality liquor to prevent alcohol from damaging liver cells, causing liver damage and chronic liver poisoning.

2. Diet

Eat more fresh vegetables, fruits, fish, meat, eggs, etc.

3. Actively exercise

Active exercise and strengthening the body's immunity are also important aspects of preventing liver cancer. Hepatitis B patients should have good living habits, regular daily routines, proper physical and mental exercise, and maintain an optimistic mood, which can strengthen their physical fitness, improve their immunity, and prevent cirrhosis and liver cancer.

4. Pay attention to hygiene

Pay attention to food hygiene to prevent the occurrence of viral hepatitis. Once you have viral hepatitis, you should actively seek treatment, pay attention to rest, and recover as soon as possible.

5. Stay away from carcinogens

Do not eat moldy or burnt food, because the aflatoxin contained in this type of food is a carcinogen.

How to care for liver cancer patients with fever

When liver cancer patients have fever symptoms, they should pay attention to clarify the cause of the fever, so as to lay a good foundation for treatment. When encountering different fever situations, we have different approaches:

1. Fever caused by bacterial infection

Practice: Anti-inflammatory drugs should be used in time for treatment, and body temperature should be controlled in time when it is too high (cooling can be done by drugs or physical cooling).

2. Fever after intervention, body temperature does not exceed 38.5℃, and the patient can tolerate it

Method: Cooling treatment may be temporarily unnecessary to facilitate the absorption of necrotic tissue, but attention should be paid to keeping the patient warm and the ventilation of the ward. In addition, changes in body temperature should be closely observed.

3. High fever symptoms

Practice: Physical cooling (using a mixture of 60% medical alcohol and 40% warm water, rubbing the chest, back, soles of the feet, palms, or using cold compresses, etc.) or medication cooling should be given immediately, combined with antibiotic treatment to prevent exogenous infection caused by interventional procedures. After liver cancer patients have fever symptoms, they should also pay attention to keeping warm and strengthen other nursing work, such as ensuring good indoor air circulation, and instructing and assisting liver cancer patients with fever to drink more water and change clothes frequently.
