Patient's question:
My son is two years old. The child has swelling in the abdomen. I went to see a doctor, and the hospital doctor said my child has neuroblastoma. My son was hospitalized for treatment, but today's thorough examination results showed that my son's neuroblastoma has spread. What should I do about neuroblastoma spread?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, neuroblastoma is a relatively common malignant tumor in children. If it has already recurred, the main goal is to stabilize the patient's quality of life and reduce mortality. Treatment primarily involves surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and symptomatic treatment. Neuroblastoma has a low cure rate and survival rate, so it is important to pay attention to consuming sufficient nutrients and preventing colds and flu. Patients should not have excessive psychological stress and should face life with a positive and optimistic attitude. In terms of diet, avoid spicy and irritating foods.
