How to recover from osteosarcoma

If osteosarcoma patients want to recover as soon as possible, they need to carry out appropriate functional exercises in a timely manner, and also need to receive psychological support treatment in a timely manner to keep the patients' emotions stable.
1. Functional exercise <br/>1 to 3 days after osteosarcoma surgery, the affected limb muscles should be exercised to promote the reduction and absorption of local inflammatory edema after trauma, and also prevent limb atrophy. 4 to 10 days can be used to exercise the distal joints of the limbs, including the ankle joints and metacarpophalangeal joints. 3 weeks after surgery, the distal and proximal joints of the surgical site can be moved, and the movements should be gentle. 4 to 6 weeks after surgery, the whole body muscles and key joints can be moved, and the amount and range of movement can be gradually increased.
2. Psychological support <br/>Osteosarcoma may require amputation, which can cause patients to have negative psychological reactions such as anxiety, fear, and pessimism, which seriously affect recovery. Family members and medical staff should give patients adequate psychological support in a timely manner to keep their emotions stable, thereby promoting recovery.
