The patient has advanced colon cancer and cannot defecate at this stage. What should I do?

Generally speaking, if a patient has the above symptoms, it may be due to tumor compression, intestinal obstruction, etc. It is recommended to seek medical attention in time and receive targeted treatment under the guidance of a doctor.

1. Cause: Colon cancer is a highly malignant digestive tract cancer. When the disease develops to the late stage, it may metastasize and spread to distant sites, and may also invade surrounding tissues, causing symptoms such as abdominal pain and abdominal masses. As the disease progresses, it may also lead to rectal stenosis or occlusion, affecting the excretion of stool;

2. Treatment methods: In such cases, you can follow the doctor's advice to improve the discomfort through radiotherapy, which can inhibit the growth and reproduction of cancer cells and control the progression of the disease. At the same time, you can also use chemotherapy as an auxiliary treatment. Commonly used drugs include oxaliplatin for injection, which helps kill residual cancer cells in the body and improve the quality of life. If necessary, you can also take surgical resection of the lesion to relieve the symptoms, such as total colectomy;

3. Notes: Pay attention to a reasonable diet in daily life, try to eat light and easily digestible food, avoid spicy and irritating food, so as not to increase the burden on the gastrointestinal tract and affect the recovery of the body. In addition, pay attention to more rest, ensure enough sleep time, do not stay up late for a long time, and do not overwork. Usually, you should also keep a good mood and exercise appropriately to strengthen your physical fitness.
