Is the cure rate of colon cancer high?

The incidence of colon cancer has been on the rise in recent years. This disease has a huge impact on people. People who have never had colon cancer cannot understand the pain it brings. But can colon cancer be cured in the middle stage? Let's take a closer look at this question!

Experts point out that there are many factors that affect the survival rate of patients with colon cancer, and we cannot make a unilateral summary. Experts point out that if colon cancer is not treated in time after it is discovered, the survival rate of the disease is very low. Another factor is that patients receive timely treatment when they find that they have colon cancer and have postoperative recovery. The total five-year survival rate after radical surgery can reach more than 50%. If it is an early-stage patient, the five-year survival rate can reach more than 80%, while it is only about 30% in the late stage.

The factors that affect the survival rate of colon cancer mainly include the patient's own condition, the effect of surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy, and postoperative rehabilitation, which are all important factors affecting the survival rate of colon cancer. However, among these factors, postoperative rehabilitation and conditioning occupy a very important position. First of all, postoperative care for colon cancer patients should gradually develop the habit of regular bowel movements. In addition, studies have shown that patients receiving colon cancer treatment can reduce the chance of cancer recurrence and increase their survival rate through regular exercise such as walking.

If the surgical treatment is not well recovered, there will be many recurrence symptoms, and the effect is not very good. During the medication period, attention must be paid to supportive treatment and drugs that reduce side effects must be used. Chemotherapy for patients whose tumors cannot be removed has a certain effect of alleviating symptoms and controlling tumor growth, but the effect is poor and the duration is short. If the patient's general condition is poor, the side effects are significant, which will aggravate the condition and should not be used.

Warm reminder: The treatment of colon cancer is quite difficult. One of the major difficulties in treating colon cancer is that if the colon cancer does not recover well, there will be many recurrences. The appearance of recurrences means that the treatment effect is not very good. However, colon cancer patients must persist on the road of treatment and do not give up halfway!
