What are the precautions after radiotherapy for brain cancer

Brain tumors, also known as intracranial tumors and brain cancer, mainly refer to cranial neoplasms, most of which can produce symptoms of increased intracranial pressure. The cause of brain tumors is still unclear, and people of any age may suffer from the disease, but the common age is 20 to 40 years old, and most of them are men, but meningiomas are mostly women. Brain tumors often have the triad of increased intracranial pressure, namely headaches, vomiting (severe headaches may be accompanied by projectile vomiting), and visual impairment. So what are the precautions after radiotherapy for brain cancer?

1. After radiotherapy for brain cancer, patients should develop good eating habits, quit smoking and drinking, improve nutrition, and eat a high-vitamin, high-protein diet.
2. After radiotherapy for brain cancer, patients can engage in appropriate activities and exercises. If they have other complications, such as obvious hyperthyroidism, diabetes, active hepatitis and tuberculosis, they should be controlled to a certain degree before radiotherapy.
3. After radiotherapy for brain cancer, for brain tumor infection or secondary inflammation, it is necessary to control inflammation, clean the wound surface, keep drainage unobstructed, and avoid any mechanical, physical, or chemical stimulation. Before radiotherapy for brain tumors, severely decayed teeth should be removed and the oral cavity should be cleaned.
