Patient's question:
Before, the sputum coughed out contained blood. At the local hospital, after a careful examination with X-rays, it was found that two-thirds of it was white. The hospital diagnosed it as lung cancer?Doctor's answer:
Lung cancer is the most common malignant tumor disease. The main symptoms of lung cancer include cough, hemoptysis or blood-stained sputum, chest pain, fever, chest tightness, shortness of breath, and even general fatigue, weight loss, anemia, and loss of appetite. It can be clearly diagnosed through chest X-rays, sputum tests, and fiberoptic bronchoscopy. Currently, treatment generally involves surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and traditional Chinese medicine, with immunotherapy as a foundation. It is recommended to actively cooperate with treatment to prevent worsening. If it recurs, it can become very troublesome and difficult to treat. In fact, having lung cancer is not terrifying. Patients should believe that they can overcome the disease. As long as treatment is timely when detected in the early stages, the chances of stabilizing the condition and recovering are very high.
