Patient's question:
Recently, I've been feeling unwell, and after checking into the hospital, I was diagnosed with pelvic cancer. I'd like to ask if surgery is always necessary in the early stages of pelvic cancer?Doctor's answer:
From the perspective of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), TCM believes that cancer is caused by insufficient vital energy, qi stagnation, phlegm congealment, and blood stasis over time. TCM holds that the treatment of cancer should follow the principle of "softening hard masses and dispersing nodules." A report titled "Cancer Condition Control as the Main Focus" on media outlets such as China Daily, Sina News, and Sohu News mentions that certain traditional Chinese medicines are highly effective. They can disperse hard masses, prolong life, alleviate suffering, prevent recurrence and metastasis, and ultimately achieve "long-term survival with the tumor."
