Everyone knows that the body is the capital, but no one wants to be affected by various force majeure factors that cause diseases. So what should we do? A little bit of physical discomfort is the triggering point of invisible diseases. We must pay attention to it. Today, let's take a look at what to do if you have tongue cancer: The fundamental pathogenesis of tongue cancer is congenital deficiency, acquired disorder of daily life, emotional distress, improper diet, etc., which lead to deficiency of vital energy, low function of internal organs, weak qi transport, inability to transform phlegm and water, qi stagnation, blood stasis and phlegm coagulation, which block the tongue and cause cancer. In terms of the course of the disease, deficiency leads to excess, excess leads to more deficiency, and deficiency and excess are mixed, and deficiency leads to superficial excess. In the early stage of tongue cancer, the main syndrome is evil and excess, with symptoms of fire poison accumulation, followed by a mixture of deficiency and excess. In the late stage, evil is strong and the vital energy is weak, with a state of both qi and blood deficiency. Clinically, syndrome differentiation and treatment can be made according to the course of the disease, and addition and subtraction can be made according to the symptoms. 1. Radiotherapy can be used as an adjuvant treatment before and after surgery for advanced tongue cancer. 2. Surgery is the main method for treating tongue cancer. For T1 cases, wedge-shaped resection more than 1 cm away from the lesion can be performed and sutured directly; for T2-T4 cases, hemiglossectomy or even total glossectomy should be performed. As an important organ for chewing and speech, reconstruction should be performed when more than 1/2 of the tongue is missing. 3. Chemotherapy: Cryotherapy can be considered for T1 and T2 tongue cancer. 4. Traditional Chinese medicine treatment. Traditional Chinese medicine can make up for the deficiencies of surgical treatment, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy. It can not only consolidate the effects of radiotherapy and chemotherapy, but also eliminate the toxic side effects of radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Tongue cancer is the most common malignant tumor in oral cancer, and its treatment is mainly based on comprehensive treatment. The treatment options for tongue cancer include: chemotherapy, radiotherapy, surgery, interventional therapy, ablation therapy, photodynamic therapy, and radioactive particle implantation, etc. The main purpose of the comprehensive treatment plan for tongue cancer is to prevent postoperative recurrence and distant metastasis of the tumor, which is the right direction to improve survival and cure rates. The specific plan is as follows: Radiotherapy, simple surgical resection or photodynamic therapy can be considered for early tongue cancer. A combination of various treatment methods should be used for advanced tongue cancer, but all of them are aimed at prolonging survival time and improving quality of life. Their respective disadvantages are: Surgery-speech function is affected after surgery. Radiotherapy-oral inflammation during radiotherapy is unbearable, and there are sequelae after radiotherapy such as sore throat and limited swallowing. Photodynamic therapy-function can be preserved, without the side effects of radiotherapy and chemotherapy, but there are side effects of photosensitivity. |
