summary

Some time ago, my cousin suffered from nasopharyngeal carcinoma, but the discovery is more timely, and the treatment process is relatively smooth. In clinical medicine, there are many kinds of treatment methods for nasopharyngeal carcinoma, especially the early one is very easy to cure. Let me tell you about the treatment of early nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

Treatment of early nasopharyngeal carcinoma

Treatment 1: radiotherapy is the first choice for nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Cobalt 60 radiotherapy is better than deep X-ray irradiation, and intracavitary radium therapy can also be used. Radiotherapy has a direct killing effect on cancer cells, but the adverse reactions are relatively large, which can cause damage to normal cells. Therefore, the dose size, radiation range and radiation course should be carefully selected according to the lesion range and the patient's physical condition. The effect of radiotherapy is very good, and the effect is relatively fast, but not everyone can use this method to treat nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

Treatment 2: because of the characteristics of nasopharyngeal carcinoma, surgery can not be the first choice. However, surgery is beneficial as a salvage treatment for recurrence after radiotherapy. Chemotherapy can be used in combination with radiotherapy or palliative treatment for patients with distant metastasis or recurrence after radiotherapy. In the early days, many people choose surgical treatment, but surgical treatment is not the main treatment.

Treatment 3: Traditional Chinese medicine plays an important role in the treatment of advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma. It can not only reduce the toxic and side effects of radiotherapy and chemotherapy on human body, but also increase the efficiency and reduce the toxicity in the treatment of advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma. If the surgical treatment has no effect, we can try to use the treatment of traditional Chinese medicine.

matters needing attention

Patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma should not eat spicy food, which can easily cause blood fever. Some cancer patients' condition is always out of control, so they can't put these seasonings when cooking, such as pepper, ginger, pepper, raw onion, raw garlic and so on. Other patients must not drink, no matter how much alcohol the wine contains, and patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma must not eat aphrodisiac food, hair food do not eat, beef and mutton. Never eat seafood, fish without scales, or kelp.
