What is the best way to treat small cell lung cancer

Because patients with small cell lung cancer are different, in order to truly recover from this disease, it is necessary to determine which treatment method is better based on the patient's condition. Sometimes the patient's condition is more complicated, so it may take more effort to treat small cell lung cancer. The following will introduce how to better treat small cell lung cancer.

Common treatments for small cell lung cancer include: surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy, and traditional Chinese medicine. However, the specific treatment method depends on the degree of progression of the patient's condition. Traditional surgical treatment is relatively risky, and considering the patient's age, if the patient is older, surgery is not recommended, but radiotherapy can be used. The whole process is painless, and radiotherapy is very sensitive to small cell lung cancer, and the effect is very significant.

Small cell carcinoma has a low degree of differentiation, grows fast, metastasizes to lymph nodes earlier and invades blood vessels through the blood vessels to spread to distant organs and tissues in the body. Therefore, among all types of lung cancer, small cell carcinoma has a poor prognosis. Small cell carcinoma is highly sensitive to radiotherapy and/or anticancer drug treatment. Surgery is generally not recommended for treatment, and systemic chemotherapy and radiotherapy combined with traditional Chinese medicine are the main treatments. This type of lung cancer has a high degree of malignancy and a poor prognosis.

The side effects of radiotherapy and chemotherapy are relatively large. It is recommended to combine radiotherapy and chemotherapy with traditional Chinese medicine. This can increase the patient's appetite, restore the number of platelets and white blood cells to normal, and rarely cause adverse symptoms such as nausea and vomiting. It also has good effects such as pain relief and sleep, which improves the patient's quality of life, enables the patient to always maintain normal physical strength, and successfully complete various treatments.

The treatment of small cell lung cancer does not work well if it is simply based on Chinese medicine. It is important to choose the right treatment method to achieve better results. At present, surgery or chemotherapy are not very effective and are also very harmful to the body. It is recommended to adopt a scientific combined treatment model with Chinese medicine as an auxiliary treatment, which has a good effect on controlling the disease and eliminating lesions.

In addition to the above, we also need to understand the key points for successful treatment of small cell lung cancer: clear pathological diagnosis, accurate staging, and early participation in radiotherapy for limited-stage small cell lung cancer.

To understand how to treat small cell lung cancer, we need to determine the best treatment method based on the patient's age, condition, physical condition and many other factors. Therefore, we must choose the correct treatment method under the doctor's advice and guidance, and try to eradicate it. Choosing scientific methods for treatment in the middle and late stages can also control the disease and prolong life. Only in this way can we truly get rid of this disease. This disease is not terrible, but our attitude towards the disease is terrible. We must adjust ourselves and deal with this disease with a positive attitude.
