How to care for small cell lung cancer? For patients with small cell lung cancer, nutritional supplementation and psychological care are the focus of nursing measures after treatment, which can effectively control the metastasis of cancer cells. So today we will take a look at how to care for small cell lung cancer?

1. Pay attention to the environment: The room where lung cancer patients live should be clean and elegant, and the surroundings should be quiet and avoid noise. Keep the room fresh and sunny, open windows regularly to ventilate, avoid direct wind and prevent cold. Add or remove clothes and quilts at any time according to temperature changes, and keep the indoor temperature and humidity appropriate.

2. Adjust diet: Appropriate exercise. Patients with long-term illness will become weak and consume more calories and protein. They can be conditioned by supplementing dietary nutrition and water. Absolutely quit smoking and prohibit excessive drinking, and avoid eating stimulating foods.

3. Pay attention to psychological care: Cancer patients have a heavy mental burden, and are prone to pessimism and world-weariness. First of all, patients should be strong in facing the disease, establish a firm belief in defeating cancer, and avoid negative emotions. On the other hand, friends and relatives of lung cancer patients should give more encouragement. Family members should observe and communicate with patients at any time, pay attention to their psychological activities, care and comfort patients at all times, listen to patients' stories patiently, make patients feel the warmth of their loved ones, avoid emotional fluctuations, eliminate worries, keep a good mood, arrange daily life reasonably, and maintain patients' hope of survival.

4. Follow-up observation of the condition: Lung cancer patients should go to the hospital for regular check-ups 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 check-ups can be gradually extended. Do not be afraid of seeing a doctor. Go to the hospital for check-ups if necessary. Do not blindly take medicine or secret prescriptions for treatment.
