How can I reduce discomfort after radiotherapy? How should I manage after radiotherapy?

Chemotherapy and radiotherapy are more harmful to patients, and the effect of simple use is only half. In fact, there is no need for radiotherapy or surgery. It is recommended that patients go to a regular big hospital to see a famous old Chinese medicine doctor and take decoction for a long time, the effect is good; Important maintenance is:

Life is very regular, be sure to go to bed early, no more than ten o'clock in the evening; Be in a good mood and be cheerful, can not be in a hurry, will aggravate the condition, moderate exercise; Diet is the key to determine whether the condition can recover well! Eat more fresh vegetables, fruits, legumes, mushrooms, and don't eat meat, soup, tobacco, alcohol, spicy fish and eggs for the time being! As long as these conditions are done, they can be stable and rarely healthy.

Oh, poor patient! If you don't get a diagnosis, you can go to radiotherapy and chemotherapy, only Western medicine can do it just to make money, and Chinese medicine will never! People with medical ethics don't!

How can a person without medical ethics bear the burden of a patient's life?

Please be cautious now, and it's not too late to go to chemotherapy and radiotherapy after you are diagnosed!! Even if it is malignant, if it is an early Chinese medicine, it is okay.

Also, do you know that Western medicine chemotherapy and radiotherapy itself is carcinogenic? If it is benign now, it may become really malignant after a few chemotherapy treatments, who is responsible for this sadness?

Confused patients, unscrupulous doctors!

The first thing to do is to establish the confidence to overcome the disease, and have a peaceful and optimistic attitude; Secondly, in terms of diet, there should not be too much protein-rich foods such as fish and meat, and more vegetables and fruits should be eaten, but excessive intake of cold foods should be avoided. It can be combined with traditional Chinese medicine decoction to also have an auxiliary effect, and can improve the body's ability to resist disease. You can also use qigong, tai chi and other martial arts practice methods to enhance physical fitness, improve immunity, and resist diseases will be very helpful.

Dietary conditioning Patients often have adverse reactions such as anorexia, nausea and vomiting due to radiation damage, and nutrition should be strengthened according to the specific situation of the patient. For example, it is encouraged to eat more vegetables rich in vitamin A, more milk, cod liver oil, eggs and other high-protein easily digestible diets to help the body repair damaged tissues. It is important not to allow the patient to have a significant weight loss during the treatment of radiotherapy, as experience has shown:

Good appetite and eating more are beneficial to the overcoming of tumors** and ***.

Patients during chemoradiotherapy will also experience symptoms of indigestion such as nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, etc. In order to enable cancer patients to strengthen the absorption of nutrients during the ** and ** periods, and improve the therapeutic effect of medicinal diet, pork belly in this medicinal diet reflects the effect of traditional Chinese medicine diet therapy to replenish the organs and nourish the spleen and stomach. Therefore, the combination of pork belly and lily can better alleviate the discomfort of patients during chemotherapy and radiotherapy.

At the same time, the auxiliary effect of life protection is more significant.

These ** themselves have a great harm to the body, it is recommended to regulate from the nutritional aspect, improve immunity, detoxify first, and then achieve balanced nutrition as much as possible. Vegetarian and drink the best water.

It can be combined with traditional Chinese medicine dialectic** to alleviate the toxicity of chemotherapy***.

After radiotherapy, you can adjust your diet, strengthen your rest, take medications, etc., and go to the hospital for regular check-ups.

1. Adjust diet: Radiotherapy generally refers to radioactivity, which kills malignant tumor cells in the skin and body through radiation, which helps to control the disease and prolong the survival cycle of patients. Because the process of radiotherapy will affect the patient's gastrointestinal tract and other organs, it is necessary to eat more light and easily digestible foods, such as soy milk, milk, rice porridge, noodles, thick soup, etc., to avoid increasing the burden on the gastrointestinal tract.

2. Strengthen rest: After radiotherapy, patients should strengthen rest and should not stay up late to sleep. Don't run, skip rope, jump and other sports that are too strenuous to hold the sail, but also keep the mood happy.

3. Taking drugs: After radiotherapy, patients should strictly follow the doctor's instructions to take some drugs to enhance immunity, such as Ganoderma lucidum Spore Hail Powder, Ginsenoside Capsules, Ginseng Qi Fuzheng Capsules, etc.

In addition to the above methods, you can also use other ways to recuperate, such as acupuncture, moxibustion, and medicated baths. It is also necessary to go to the hospital regularly for follow-up check-ups to understand the recovery status of the disease.

After radiotherapy, some Chinese medicine can be used to strengthen the body, which can antagonize the tissue damage caused by chemotherapy drugs, reduce the quality of chemotherapy drugs, and also promote the hematopoiesis of the bone marrow, regulate the body's qi and blood balance, and improve the body's ability to avoid leniency and simplicity. After my father-in-law's radiotherapy, I went to Sanlin Xupu Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital to find a Chinese medicine prescription prescribed by an expert, and I have been drinking it, and he feels that it is really useful.

Common types of radiotherapy*** are as follows:

General reactions: It can manifest as loss of appetite, fatigue and weakness, headache, dizziness, immunocompromise, etc.

Digestive tract reactions: manifested as nausea, vomiting, dyspepsia, stomach discomfort, bloating, diarrhea, etc.

Myelosuppression: manifested as a decrease in white blood cells, red blood cells, platelets, etc., and a decrease in white blood cells is common and lasts for a long time.

Local reactions: **Injury, erythema, exudation, ulcer, dry mouth, radiation cataract, brain atrophy, pathological fracture, sensorimotor disorders caused by radiation myelitis, severe paraplegia, cough, chest tightness, shortness of breath caused by radiation pneumonitis, radiation gastroenteritis is mainly intractable diarrhea and blood in the stool, as well as radiation damage to the heart, liver, kidneys, etc., although radiation damage to organs is rare, but once it occurs, the consequences are more serious, and even lead to death.

How are complications of radiotherapy treated?

Although the adverse effects of radiotherapy are relatively small compared with chemotherapy, some adverse reactions can still occur. Cancer patients who are receiving radiotherapy may be complicated by thrombosis, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, etc., and may also have adverse reactions such as fatigue and hair loss.

Hello, friend.

Radiation therapy is more painful. Killing cancer cells also kills some white blood cells and red blood cells, manifesting as a series of dysfunctions and disorders, such as lack of energy, decreased appetite, and poor immunity. Usually pay attention to the light diet, supplement more nutritious foods such as fish, lean meat, pork ribs, fruits, etc., take some Ji umbrella fungus powder every day to take it, the unique glucose structure can inhibit cancer cells, relieve the discomfort of radiotherapy.

It generally depends on the physical condition. If the body is well, most patients can tolerate radiotherapy.

Recommendation: Before radiotherapy, blood RT biochemistry and general examination should be done.

Radiotherapy refers to radioactivity**, which refers to the irradiation of a specific part of the human body with a particle accelerator through a radioactive source (cobalt-60, uranium-235, etc.). Like Ax knives, gamma knives and so on.

Adverse reactions are determined by the patient's body.

During radiotherapy**, there will be a burning sensation, and it will be better to apply some burn oil frequently.

Radiotherapy is the abbreviation of radiation, which refers to the application of radiation to kill tumor cells by irradiating them to tumor cells, so as to achieve a means of controlling and destroying tumors, which is a very important means in tumors.

Radiotherapy is now divided into many kinds, which are generally divided into external radiation radiation therapy and internal radiation radiotherapy, commonly used such as three-dimensional conformal intensity-modulated radiotherapy, as well as conformal intensity-modulated radiotherapy, and electron ray radiotherapy all refer to external beam radiotherapy.

In addition, there are also extracorpotactic radiotherapy, which is also an extracorporeal radiotherapy method, and internal radiotherapy generally refers to the use of endoluminal radiotherapy for patients with cervical cancer. By placing a radioactive source into the patient's body, one of the goals of tumor control is achieved. There is also ion ion implantation, then it can also be considered as a means of in vivo radiotherapy, which refers to radiotherapy.

In addition, there are some methods such as intraoperative radiotherapy, which can be combined with surgery to achieve better tumor control. Aggregate radiotherapy is a means of killing tumor cells by the principle of radiation.

What is Chemotherapy?

Chemotherapy is a way to use chemical drugs to kill tumor cells, inhibit the growth and reproduction of tumor cells and promote the differentiation of tumor cells.

The disadvantage is that the selectivity of chemotherapy drugs is poor, and at the same time as achieving the best effect, there are often different degrees of toxicity; During the process of chemotherapy, the body is weakened, listless, sweating, white blood cells and platelets decrease, and even red blood cells and hemoglobin decline one after another, and even force the patient to stop**, the use of traditional Chinese medicine and chemotherapy can effectively eliminate these toxic side effects, and at the same time form a synergistic effect with chemotherapy to increase the effect of chemotherapy.

What is radiotherapy?

Radiotherapy is one of the three major methods of cancer. It is a method of irradiating tumors with various rays of different energies to inhibit and kill cancer cells. Radiotherapy can be used alone or in combination with surgery, chemotherapy, etc., as part of a comprehensive approach to increase the incidence of cancer.

A period of radiotherapy before surgery can be performed to reduce the size of the tumor, so that patients who could not have surgery can have the opportunity to undergo surgery. For advanced cancer, palliative radiotherapy can be used to relieve compression and relieve pain.

Radiotherapy can be divided into two types: ** radiotherapy and palliative radiotherapy. The former is suitable for early and some advanced patients to eliminate the primary lesion, possible residual lesions after surgery, and some metastases. The latter is suitable for patients with advanced disease and is mostly a stopgap measure.

Doses are given according to tolerance to improve symptoms, reduce pain, and prolong life. Individual can also achieve the effect of **.

Doctors determine the total dose based on the nature of the tumor, its location, the stage of the disease, and its general condition. The total dose is allocated to 20 30 doses, which are irradiated in 4-6 weeks. After accurate positioning, a mark is drawn on the surface of the body, and through the surface of the body, it is irradiated to the tumor site.

Therefore, the positioning marks such as frames drawn on the body surface should not be scrubbed off by yourself.

Radiotherapy Radiotherapy is radiation**, which refers to the use of radiation to eliminate lesions. As an important means of malignant tumors, radiation can produce good results for many cancers. However, radiotherapy can produce radiation dermatitis, radiation esophagitis, loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea or constipation and many other toxic side effects.

Is radiation painful? How do patients feel during radiation therapy? What to look out for?

Radiation is actually very simple, that is, through different radiation to reduce the tumor, or eliminate a means of **, it is actually a physical means, at present, there is a long history, about 70% of the tumor needs to be radiated**. Because at the same time of radiation, it will damage the normal tissues around the tumor, and at the same time, the necrosis and edema of the tumor caused by the radiation itself can also cause a series of complications, in other words, that is, radiation rays will kill some normal tissues while killing the tumor.

The hardest thing to endure at that time was that the worry and anxiety about one's own condition could be the hardest part, because it would not only affect the patient's spirit, but also hinder their progress. Therefore, when patients feel anxious, they may wish to try to overcome their fears, maintain the right attitude, embrace a positive attitude towards life, and move forward boldly in the future, so as to meet their better and better selves day by day.

First of all, when people don't know enough about their condition, it's easy to get scared of medical conditions and often worry about developing serious symptoms, especially given today's pandemic of COVID, which is a contagious virus that can have fatal consequences. As a result, many patients often worry about whether their health will recover, whether there is any hope of recovery, and they may also feel isolated and at a loss for what they are doing.

Secondly, some patients may develop anxiety about their condition due to too much suspicion in their minds after suffering from many examinations and**. They may worry about whether their health will be affected by radiotherapy and whether their life will return to normal later in life, and these doubts may cause their emotions to fluctuate extremely and cause them to not get the rest they deserve mentally.

Finally, when a patient has been ill for a period of time, they may also have doubts, such as whether the results of the disease are effective, how likely it is to be re-infected, and what kind of examination work will be done in the future, which are some anxious questions that are difficult to solve.

The patient will have no appetite. Because during radiotherapy, the body will be extremely uncomfortable, and then it will affect the mood and body, so there will be different degrees of impact on eating, such as no appetite, not wanting to eat, uncomfortable and unable to eat.

Some patients who have undergone radiotherapy may have a loss of appetite after radiotherapy because the radiation damages the patient's respiratory tract and digestive tract, making it difficult for the patient to eat and lose appetite.

Yes, because radiotherapy will produce a lot of ***, the patient will have a loss of appetite, or no mental state.

Physical weakness.

Due to the disintegration of tumor tissue and the absorption of toxins, after a few hours or 1 2 days of irradiation, patients may have systemic reactions, manifested as weakness, fatigue, dizziness, headache, anorexia, and individual nausea, vomiting, etc., especially when irradiated to the abdomen and large areas, the reaction is more severe.

**React. **Radiation tolerance depends on the source used, the area and location of the radiation. The R-rays and high-energy X-rays produced by the cobalt-60** machine and the linear accelerator have strong permeability, low acceptance and light reaction; The low-energy X-ray produced by the X-ray machine and the electron beam generated by the induction accelerator are large and the reaction is heavy.

Mucosal reactions. Stomatitis: Edema, hyperemia, ulceration, pain, decreased salivation, dry mouth, and even pseudomembranes may occur after irradiation of the oral mucosa. Esophagitis:

After esophageal irradiation, mucosal congestion, edema, and inflammation may occur, which will aggravate esophageal obstruction, resulting in dyspharyngea, pain, and increased mucus.

Radiation pneumonitis and pulmonary fibrosis.

Radiation pneumonitis can occur after chest irradiation. Mild cases are asymptomatic, and acute radiation pneumonitis is accompanied by high fever, chest pain, cough, and shortness of breath. Immediate oxygen, intravenous hydrocortisone, and antibiotics are required.

Upper respiratory tract infection is the cause of infection, and attention should be paid to keeping warm to prevent colds. Progressive pulmonary fibrosis may occur in the later stages of radiotherapy, manifesting as shortness of breath and dry cough, which requires symptomatic management.

Radiation myelitis.

Spinal cord injury will occur after receiving a larger dose of irradiation, which mostly occurs within months to years after radiotherapy, and begins to manifest as gradual, ascending ** decreased sensation, fatigue in walking or weight, such as electric shock when bowing the head, and gradually develops into limb movement disorders, hyperreflexia, spasms, and even paralysis.
