What to do if tongue cancer recurs

Patients with tongue cancer are very worried about the recurrence of tongue cancer. The treatment is a very long process. Among many malignant tumors, tongue cancer is a very serious oral malignant tumor. Tongue cancer mainly occurs in the oral cavity, accounting for a high proportion of oral malignant tumors, and it is difficult to completely eliminate it with surgical treatment, so the chance of recurrence is very high. So what should we do if tongue cancer recurs repeatedly? Let's take a closer look.

After treatment, tongue cancer usually recurs or relapses. The early or late recurrence depends on the malignancy of the tongue cancer and the thoroughness of the treatment to remove the tongue cancer lesions. The higher the malignancy of the tongue cancer and the larger the cancer lesions, the less guaranteed the thoroughness of the treatment, the greater the possibility of recurrence, and the earlier the recurrence, and vice versa.

In the use of traditional Chinese medicine to treat advanced tongue cancer, the purpose is to prolong the patient's life while improving symptoms and quality of life.

At present, the treatment of tumors generally adopts surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and traditional Chinese medicine treatment. In particular, traditional Chinese medicine treatment of tumors is increasingly recognized by doctors and patients. It organically grafts traditional Chinese medicine theory with the latest medical theories such as contemporary immune theory, cell differentiation and proliferation cycle theory, and gene theory, and integrates them to create a professional traditional Chinese medicine therapy for the treatment of various malignant tumors. Its core idea is "strengthening the body", "unblocking", and "removing toxins". It is targeted and focused on medication. It uses three aspects of strengthening the body, tonifying the body, unblocking and removing blood stasis, and attacking toxins and removing toxins according to the specific conditions of the patient, so as to achieve the fundamental purpose of regulating the balance of the body's yin and yang, qi and blood, and the physiological functions of the internal organs. It basically comprehensively and objectively summarizes the pathogenesis and treatment of cancer.

Traditional Chinese medicine treatment makes up for the deficiencies and effectively improves the quality of life

First, TCM has cured a considerable number of advanced cancers. Evidence-based medicine has shown that if patients are treated with TCM immediately after diagnosis, the cure rate of cancer can be greatly improved.

Second, taking Chinese medicine for a long time after surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy can stabilize the condition, consolidate the therapeutic effect, prevent recurrence and metastasis, and improve the long-term treatment effect.

Third, combined with tumor radiotherapy and chemotherapy, it can reduce the toxic side effects of radiotherapy and chemotherapy, enhance the therapeutic effect of radiotherapy and chemotherapy (reduce toxicity and increase efficacy), reduce the hematopoietic function suppression, immune function suppression, gastrointestinal reactions, liver and spleen function damage caused by chemotherapy, and cooperate with the entire course of radiotherapy and chemotherapy to achieve the purpose of reducing toxicity and increasing efficacy;

Fourth, for patients who cannot undergo surgery and chemotherapy, some patients can also be cured with traditional Chinese medicine, and its efficacy is even better than surgery and chemotherapy. This has been confirmed by a large number of cases. At the same time, it can improve symptoms, relieve pain, improve the quality of life, and prolong the patient's survival (survival time with tumor).
