Can surgery be performed on stage 4 gastric cancer?

If the patient is in good general condition and has no abnormal liver and kidney function, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and targeted drug therapy can still delay disease progression, improve patient survival, and improve the patient's quality of life. If gastric cancer has reached stage 4, surgery can only prolong life appropriately and cannot completely cure the disease.

What are the symptoms of gastric cancer recurrence after surgery?

The main symptoms of recurrence after gastric cancer surgery are gastrointestinal bleeding, changes in bowel habits, and a significant decrease in appetite. If it recurs, the condition is very serious. It is mainly because the cancer cells have spread to other parts of the body. Under the guidance of the doctor, through targeted drug treatment, it is necessary to strengthen the control of cancer cell growth, maintain a good attitude, and do not overwork.

Symptoms of recurrence after gastric cancer surgery may be sudden heart pain and discomfort, accompanied by a feeling of fullness and burping, but the pain is often irregular. Brain metastases can cause symptoms related to intracranial hypertension.

Can I take Chinese medicine for advanced gastric cancer with liver metastasis and ascites?

Ascites is a common symptom of liver metastasis from gastric cancer in the late stage. It can be treated with traditional Chinese medicine. Through internal and external treatment, ascites can be eliminated without losing human albumin. At the same time, it can effectively control the development of the disease, reduce the consumption of the tumor on the human body, relieve clinical discomfort symptoms, reduce pain, and prolong life.

Early-stage gastric cancer can be cured by Chinese medicine treatment. The earlier the treatment, the higher the cure rate. When cancer spreads to the lymph, blood, and liver, the treatment efficiency will be significantly reduced.
