How can colon cancer be treated quickly? Colon cancer is one of the common malignant tumors of the digestive tract. Its occurrence has a lot to do with our daily eating habits. Nowadays, as people's pace of life accelerates, their diet becomes more and more irregular, leading to an increasing incidence of the disease. So, how can colon cancer be treated quickly?

1. Immunotherapy for colon cancer: It can improve the anti-tumor ability of patients with colon cancer. It has developed rapidly in recent years. Interferon, interleukin, transfer factor, tumor necrosis factor, etc. have been gradually and widely used. They can not only improve the patient's immune ability, but also cooperate with chemotherapy.

2. TCM treatment of colon cancer: Patients with colon cancer have more frequent bowel movements, blood in the stool often contains pus, blood and mucus, abdominal distension and pain, poor appetite, yellow and greasy tongue coating, and weak and fine pulse. TCM believes that the treatment of colon cancer is mainly to clear away heat and detoxify, and to activate blood circulation and reduce swelling. The prescriptions include Huanglian Jiedu, Simiao Pills, Danggui Longhui Pills, Sophora japonica powder, Shaofu Zhuyu Decoction, etc., and astragalus, Codonopsis, Atractylodes macrocephala, and Poria cocos are often used to invigorate qi and strengthen the spleen. Psoralea corylifolia, nutmeg, and Terminalia chebula are often used to invigorate the kidney. If patients with colon cancer also have diarrhea, blood in the stool, and heaviness in the back, take angelica, peony, Chuanxiong, ginseng, Atractylodes macrocephala, Poria cocos, and cinnamon twigs. Decoction in water to extract juice, take twice a day, and the effect is good.

3. Western medicine treatment of colon cancer: The principle of Western medicine treatment of colon cancer is comprehensive treatment with surgical resection as the main method, combined with chemotherapy and radiotherapy to reduce the recurrence rate after surgery and improve the survival rate. For unresectable colon cancer, neoadjuvant chemotherapy can be used. On the one hand, it can reduce the stage of the tumor and transform some unresectable tumors into resectable tumors. On the other hand, it can prolong the survival time of patients and improve the quality of life of patients with colon cancer.

In addition, for patients with colon cancer with liver and lung metastases, they are not completely deprived of the opportunity for treatment. If the metastatic lesions can be removed at the same time, they will be removed together with the colon cancer lesions. If the metastatic lesions cannot be removed, neoadjuvant chemotherapy will be performed first, and then removed after the stage is reduced. In some patients with liver metastases, the liver metastases are limited to one lobe or one segment. Surgical resection is not only simple, but also has a high 5-year survival rate. The selection of surgical indications and the experience of the surgeon are the key factors in determining the operation.
