The early symptoms of lung cancer may not be very obvious, and the harm it brings to patients is not obvious, so many patients find that they have lung cancer when the disease is already serious. If lung cancer metastasizes to the bone, it means that the condition has worsened. So, how to treat lung cancer bone metastasis? 1. Chemotherapy. Systemic chemotherapy can control the development of bone metastasis and relieve pain while treating primary lung lesions. Therefore, it can not only relieve pain, but also kill cancer cells and control their growth. In particular, the combined chemotherapy regimen based on high-dose cisplatin is more effective. In some cases, when reviewing X-rays, it was found that bone metastases disappeared and new bone cortexes were formed. Since there may be potential micrometastases in other organs of the body when lung cancer cases have bone metastases, systemic combined chemotherapy can treat other potential metastases while treating bone metastases. There is also zoledronic acid, which is mainly used to treat bone metastases. 2. Radiotherapy. Radiotherapy can be divided into several methods such as cobalt-60 irradiation, deep X-ray machine and linear accelerator. For isolated bone metastases, after the lung lesions are controlled and stabilized by chemotherapy, high-dose, short-course radiotherapy can be given to relieve pain, kill cancer cells and control the development of lesions. About 50% of patients can completely relieve pain after radiotherapy, and about 75% of patients can significantly reduce pain. 3. Targeted therapy. Radionuclide internal irradiation therapy is actually a targeted therapy for bone metastasis of lung cancer. Experts suggest: Traditional Chinese medicine can strengthen the phagocytic function of cells, promote the transformation of lymphoblasts, increase the production of antibodies, and mobilize the body's anti-cancer ability. Traditional Chinese medicine treats cancer by promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, clearing away heat and detoxifying, softening and dispersing nodules, and combining overall treatment with local treatment. While promoting the body's recovery, it can also effectively alleviate the patient's clinical symptoms and improve the patient's quality of life. The treatment of lung cancer bone metastasis should be safe and reliable. TCM adheres to the people-oriented viewpoint, which can avoid functional disorders, new complications and sequelae after surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy, such as loss of appetite, hair loss, leukopenia, organ dysfunction, bone marrow suppression, digestive tract reaction, reduced immune function, skin and mucosal damage, etc. TCM treatment is safe and reliable, and generally does not cause new damage to the body, but will enhance the body's recovery. |
