Can the condition of patients with advanced gastric cancer be controlled?

Patients with advanced gastric cancer generally cannot be completely cured of the disease, but active treatment can prolong survival time and improve quality of life. If you experience any discomfort, it is recommended to seek medical attention in a timely manner and receive targeted treatment under the guidance of a doctor.

1. Cause: Since cancer is a malignant tumor disease with the characteristics of invasive growth and metastasis, even if it is not effectively treated when discovered in the early stage, the disease will gradually worsen and develop to the middle and late stages. At this time, the opportunity for surgical resection is usually lost, and radiotherapy or chemotherapy can only be used to inhibit the spread and metastasis of cancer cells in the body;

2. Symptoms: As the disease progresses, it may compress surrounding tissues, causing abdominal pain, accompanied by nausea and vomiting. It may also cause loss of appetite, and in severe cases, it may affect normal eating and even cause weight loss. Therefore, it is necessary to actively cooperate with doctors to give appropriate drugs or measures to alleviate and improve clinical symptoms;

3. Notes: In daily life, you should maintain a good attitude and avoid excessive excitement or negative emotional stimulation such as anxiety and tension, so as not to affect the body's recovery. You should also pay attention to a reasonable diet, try to eat light and easily digestible food, eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, and supplement vitamin C to enhance your immunity. If you experience other discomfort, you need to go to the hospital immediately.
