Some care details that patients with cardia cancer should pay attention to when outdoors

As a special type of gastric cancer, the care of cardia cancer is also different from that of general gastric cancer. Specifically, we need to analyze the causes of cardia cancer. Here, we ask experts to briefly introduce some details that should be paid special attention to in outdoor activities when caring for cardia cancer .

1. Beware of colds:

Patients with cardia cancer who need chemotherapy or radiotherapy after surgery should pay attention to preventing colds. Avoid going to public places during the flu season; ventilate the room frequently; if a family member has a cold, it is best to live in separate rooms to reduce the chance of contact, and take vitamin C and other drugs for prevention when necessary. This is one of the key points of nursing for cardia cancer.

2. Pay attention to doing deep breathing exercises frequently:

Regular daily life and deep breathing exercises: Regular daily life and good mood and sleep can prevent patients from depression. In the care of cardiac cancer, patients should be asked to do some housework and physical exercises within their ability, especially breathing exercises. Patients should be urged to do deep breathing exercises and effective coughing, especially patients with a history of smoking (smokers must quit smoking). Family members can also tap the patient's back 2-3 times a day (the operator puts five fingers together and taps from bottom to top with a half-clenched fist) to help the patient expectorate.

Like many cancers, the care of cardia cancer requires not only attention to the patient's physical health and daily diet, but also attention to spiritual support to keep the patient in a good mental state. It should be noted that with the development of medical technology, cardia cancer is not difficult to treat. As long as the care of cardia cancer is done well, early recovery is possible.
