What to do with early stage nasopharyngeal cancer? Can it be cured?

Nowadays, the incidence of cancer is getting higher and higher in our lives, threatening the health of each of us. Nasopharyngeal carcinoma is a common malignant tumor in clinical practice. Due to the complexity of the site of the disease, the prognosis is poor. So, what should we do with early nasopharyngeal carcinoma? Can it be cured? Let us learn about it together.

The early treatment of nasopharyngeal carcinoma is more effective. If patients can undergo early detection, early standardized treatment, and a good attitude and rehabilitation care, the cure rate of nasopharyngeal carcinoma can be as high as 90%. In the early stage of nasopharyngeal carcinoma, through radiotherapy and comprehensive treatment, more than 90% of patients can be completely cured.

1. Surgical treatment: Surgical resection is generally suitable for patients with early nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Cancer cells can be removed through surgical treatment. The scope of surgical resection is determined by the patient's condition. Tumor tissue can be removed quickly and the effect is quick. However, the surgery is still very traumatic. You can take some Chinese medicine to reduce these side effects. Some products containing ginsenoside rh are very helpful for postoperative recovery.

2. Radiotherapy: Radiotherapy is a commonly used treatment for nasopharyngeal carcinoma in the early stages. Given that radiotherapy can also damage normal cells, the main symptoms are dry mouth and sore throat, nausea and loss of appetite, decreased white blood cell levels, and difficulty opening the mouth. These side effects can be alleviated with the help of Chinese medicine.

3. Biological immunotherapy: Biological therapy is a new tumor treatment strategy developed in recent years with the development of science and technology, and has become the fourth major means of tumor treatment. It is a type of treatment method that uses biological agents to regulate the body's own biological response and mobilize the immune defense function of tumor patients to inhibit or eliminate tumors.

In addition, the early treatment of nasopharyngeal carcinoma should also pay attention to life. In terms of diet, during radiotherapy and chemotherapy, patients should eat foods that are easy to digest and rich in nutrients such as protein, vitamins, and amino acids, quit smoking and drinking, avoid spicy and irritating foods, and avoid eating too dry and rough foods. You can also rely on taking Chinese medicine that has the effect of tonifying the spleen and kidneys to enhance immune function.
