Traditional Chinese medicine treatment is the main treatment method for pancreatic cancer. Many pancreatic cancer patients cannot undergo surgical treatment after diagnosis. They are not very sensitive to radiotherapy and chemotherapy, and there are side effects. Traditional Chinese medicine treatment is the first choice for many advanced and elderly patients. It can improve patients' immunity, physical function, and quality of life. There are also some traditional Chinese medicine therapies that can improve patients' symptoms after taking them. Combined use during radiotherapy and chemotherapy has the effect of enhancing efficacy and reducing toxicity. Pancreatic cancer is a highly malignant digestive tract tumor that is difficult to diagnose and treat. About 90% of pancreatic cancers are ductal adenocarcinomas that originate from the glandular duct epithelium. Its morbidity and mortality rates have increased significantly in recent years. The 5-year survival rate is <1%, making it one of the malignant tumors with the worst prognosis. The early diagnosis rate of pancreatic cancer is not high, the surgical mortality rate is high, and the cure rate is very low. The incidence of this disease is higher in men than in women, with a male-to-female ratio of 1.5 to 2:1. Male patients are far more common than premenopausal women, and the incidence rate in postmenopausal women is similar to that in men. If it is in the early stage, the hope of cure is very high. Suggestions: It is best to cooperate with the doctor for treatment as soon as possible, and do not delay. In terms of treatment, it is better to receive surgical treatment as soon as possible, and it is best to cooperate with anti-cancer Chinese medicine treatment. Chinese medicine can inhibit the proliferation of cancer cells, induce apoptosis and differentiation, shrink the tumor, improve the success rate of surgery, and reduce the occurrence of surgical complications. The abdominal pain of typical pancreatic cancer often worsens when lying on the back, especially at night, forcing the patient to sit up or bend forward or bend the knees to relieve the pain. Sometimes the patient tosses and turns at night, which may be due to the compression of the abdominal plexus by cancer infiltration. |
