Patient's question:
Early on, I developed pelvic cancer. About five years after the surgery, I always felt nauseous and vomiting. What is the reason for fatigue and vomiting in pelvic cancer patients five years after surgery?Doctor's answer:
Hello, it may be a postoperative complication. The risk of brain surgery is extremely high, and the damage to normal cells after surgery is too severe, affecting the nerves and causing symptoms such as vomiting. The patient's body is weak after surgery, making them prone to such postoperative complications, so family members need not worry excessively.As an auxiliary treatment, some herbal extracts such as (ginsenoside Rh2) capsules can be used. They help replenish vital energy, enhance the body's immunity and resistance, thereby improving the patient's quality of life and extending their lifespan.
The postoperative care for brain tumor surgery includes the following points:
1. Pay attention to adjusting the body position. When there is no shock, the head of the bed can be elevated, avoiding twisted neck or chest compression to facilitate intracranial venous return.
2. Maintain airway patency, promptly clear respiratory secretions, and provide oxygen at regular intervals. If conditions permit, hyperbaric oxygen therapy can be used, 2-3 times daily, with each session lasting 45 minutes.
3. Avoid coughing, sneezing, and dry vomiting as much as possible. Treat constipation promptly to keep bowel movements regular.
4. Limit fluid intake. For patients with glioma who have symptoms of intracranial hypertension and cerebral edema, the body should be supplied with the minimum amount of fluid, and blood electrolytes should be checked frequently to prevent exacerbation of cerebral edema due to water and sodium retention.
