Is Chinese medicine effective in treating bladder cancer?

My mother is 62 years old. She was diagnosed with bladder cancer in August last year and chose surgery at that time. She has undergone 3 surgeries so far, but the disease keeps coming back. I heard that Chinese medicine combined with treatment is also effective. What anti-cancer methods does Chinese medicine have?

For patients who undergo surgery and chemotherapy, taking Chinese medicine to fight cancer during and after surgery can not only promote physical health and enhance immune function, but also continue to play an anti-cancer role, prevent recurrence and metastasis, and improve survival rate. Patients need to be reminded that they should not blindly believe in some so-called "cancer-curing" Chinese medicine prescriptions on the market. Tumors are complicated and cannot be cured by one prescription or one medicine. In order to improve the efficacy, we must follow the four examinations and eight principles of traditional Chinese medicine and conduct syndrome differentiation and treatment according to the patient's own situation. We must go to a regular hospital for oncology treatment.

However, it must be emphasized that surgery is one of the main ways to treat bladder cancer, and comprehensive treatment plans should be used after surgery to consolidate the results. However, cancer is a local manifestation of a systemic disease. Although the local tumor is removed, it is powerless against the cancer cells remaining in the blood and lymph, so the recurrence rate is very high.

During the recovery period, in addition to strict regular check-ups and comprehensive treatment, you should develop a step-by-step physical recovery plan for yourself, so that your daily diet and daily life form a good routine, and the physiological activities of various tissues and organs in the body can operate normally according to the rhythm, which is beneficial to the recovery of the patient and prevent recurrence of the disease.
