Is pelvic cancer radiotherapy painful?

Patient's question:

Recently, after examination, I was diagnosed with pelvic cancer. The doctor recommended that I undergo surgery and then combine it with radiotherapy in the later stage. So, I want to ask if radiotherapy for pelvic cancer is painful?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, if your physical condition permits, you can consider appropriate radiotherapy. However, since radiotherapy lacks the ability to distinguish, it needs to be repeated. After multiple sessions of radiotherapy, the patient's immune function declines, resistance decreases, and it becomes easier for the cancer to metastasize. It is recommended to adopt traditional Chinese medicine in a timely manner during Western medicine treatment. There is no conflict between radiotherapy and traditional Chinese medicine; on the contrary, they can complement each other, enhance efficacy while reducing the side effects of radiotherapy, suppress and eliminate tumors, thereby achieving better therapeutic effects.
