How to prevent small cell lung cancer

How to prevent small cell lung cancer? The early symptoms of small cell lung cancer are not obvious and atypical. Most patients are in the middle and late stages when they are discovered and have lost the opportunity for surgery. Therefore, we need to understand how to stay away from small cell lung cancer. Today, let's take a look at how to prevent small cell lung cancer:

1. Small cell lung cancer is mainly caused by changes in living environment. The factors that cause lung cancer are vicious, including unhealthy living habits, such as smoking, which is an important carcinogenic habit. Therefore, appropriate smoking bans and dissuading smoking have positive significance for the prevention of small cell lung cancer.

2. Radiotherapy and chemotherapy can be used to treat small cell lung cancer, which becomes the main treatment for these patients.

3. In recent years, with the continuous advancement of radiotherapy and chemotherapy techniques, coupled with the emergence of some new molecular targeted drugs and the application of traditional Chinese medicine, the treatment effect of many patients with small cell lung cancer who cannot undergo surgery has been significantly improved.

4. Pay attention to diet. After surgery for small cell lung cancer, patients should not eat irritating foods, such as peppers, raw onions, garlic, peppercorns, cinnamon, etc., nor hot foods such as hot pot, fried food, and barbecue. Eat more foods rich in vitamins A and C and foods that clear and moisten the lungs, such as grapes, walnut kernels, asparagus, loquats, pears, etc.

5. In recent years, due to outdoor air pollution, it is very important to take good care of the indoor environment and keep the air flowing.

6. Proper exercise: Strengthening exercise, enhancing the body's disease resistance, and avoiding long-term stimulation of carcinogenic factors can reduce the incidence and prevent small cell lung cancer. After small cell lung cancer surgery, you must not do any exercise in the wind, because the wind will directly stimulate the respiratory tract. It is best for patients to take some corresponding exercises to improve their body's immunity. If you get up every morning, you can do some Qigong exercises, especially Qigong that enhances respiratory function and improves lung function.
