Patient's question:
A cousin is in the middle stage of pelvic cancer. At this stage, can surgery be performed? When is the best time to have surgery for pelvic cancer?Doctor's answer:
Hello, surgery can only remove the visible lesions. Cancer is a systemic disease, but there may still be residual cancer or regional lymph nodes. Since surgery damages the body's vital energy, the risk of recurrence and metastasis is very high. Radiotherapy and chemotherapy drugs are highly toxic and cannot completely kill cancer cells; they can only kill cancer cells at a certain proportion. Residual cancer cells can develop rapidly in patients with weakened immunity and low resistance, forming new lesions. It is recommended that radiotherapy be combined with the use of traditional Chinese herbal medicine for comprehensive treatment, comprehensive conditioning, boosting immunity, killing residual cancer cells, and adjusting the balance of yin and yang. This will enable the patient to achieve significant improvement and control of the condition in the shortest possible time, achieving the most ideal results.
