What are the treatments for lung cancer bone metastasis? There are three professional treatments for lung cancer bone metastasis

If lung cancer has metastasized to the bones, it means the situation is quite serious. However, patients should not be discouraged at this time, because there are still treatments. We can treat it through radiotherapy, chemotherapy, traditional Chinese medicine and other methods. This requires the active cooperation of patients.

Speaking of lung cancer, I believe many friends have their own opinions. For patients at different stages, doctors will take a pain-free approach to treatment. However, since the symptoms of lung cancer may not be very obvious in the early stages, and the harm to patients is not obvious, 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 and is more difficult to cure. So how should lung cancer be treated after bone metastasis? Let's take a look at it together.

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.

Warm reminder: 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 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.

In addition, patients with lung cancer often experience emotions such as fear and pessimism, so their care must be taken seriously. Efforts should be made to create a warm and harmonious recuperation environment for patients, place them in single rooms, speak in a friendly and sincere manner, encourage patients to express their psychological feelings, provide timely guidance, and actively introduce information about the improvement of their condition to patients.
