Good nursing habits that patients with small cell lung cancer should develop

I don't know if you know about lung cancer. This disease makes people feel very painful. If it is not treated in time, it will definitely have an impact. Psychologically, it also suffers great pain, so nursing is also a very important issue during treatment. Let's focus on the good nursing habits that patients with small cell lung cancer should develop.

Patients with small cell lung cancer should:

(1) Quit smoking.

(2) Drink less strong alcohol.

(3) Do not eat moldy or spoiled food, and eat less pickled food.

(4) When eating, you should chew slowly and avoid eating overly hot food.

(5) Avoid spicy foods: onions, garlic, leeks, ginger, peppers, chili peppers, cinnamon, etc.

(6) Avoid hot foods such as frying and grilling.

(7) Avoid greasy, sticky, and phlegm-producing foods. Eat more foods that can enhance immunity and resist small cell lung cancer, such as coix seed, sweet almonds, water chestnuts, oysters, jellyfish, yellow croaker, sea turtle, crab, horseshoe crab, cockle, sea cucumber, Poria cocos, yam, jujube, black snake, green beans, mushrooms, walnuts, and soft-shelled turtle.

Be strong in the face of the disease, establish a firm belief in defeating small cell lung cancer, avoid negative emotions, keep a good mood, and arrange your daily life reasonably. Patients who have undergone resection of small cell lung cancer should perform respiratory function exercises as soon as possible, do chest expansion exercises, and take deep breaths at the same time. By expanding the chest, increase the ventilation function, do abdominal breathing, take a deep breath while holding the chest up, and take a deep breath while contracting the abdomen, so as to improve the effective capacity of the chest cavity and respiratory function.

Patients with small cell lung cancer should go to the hospital for regular checkups after treatment. Generally, chest X-ray and liver B-ultrasound examinations are performed every other month after surgery. As time goes by, the interval between checkups can be gradually extended. Don't be afraid to seek medical attention. If necessary, take the initiative to go to the hospital for examination. When treating small cell lung cancer, don't blindly take medicine or take secret prescriptions.
