Patient's question:
Because of the enlarged prostate of my father, he prepared for surgery. After a thorough medical examination at the hospital, the doctor said there was inflammation in the lungs and needed further examination. If it was lung cancer, could the prostate surgery still be performed?Doctor's answer:
In general, this situation does not interfere, and patients need not worry. However, for lung cancer, it is recommended to seek treatment as early as possible. Patients who are candidates for surgery should undergo surgical treatment. Those who have lost the opportunity for surgery can opt for radiotherapy, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, or other treatment methods to avoid missing the best course of treatment. During the treatment of lung cancer, patients can consume some traditional Chinese medicine, which can assist in the treatment by preventing the formation of new blood vessels in lung cancer cells, reducing the pain caused by cancer, and preventing the divergence and further progression of lung cancer cells. At the same time, it can protect the patient's liver and provide certain nutritional support during the treatment. Prostate conditions are prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication.
