On the change of idea and the change of cancer color to be far away from me

Compared with the 890 's, people have come to realize that cancer is not an incurable disease, as cancer is the equivalent of death. But the lack of cancer knowledge, many early cancer patients,

Unaware that the best treatment time was missed by late. The experts say there is no obvious difference between the early symptoms of many cancers and the general disease. Most people tend to simply do some simple tests, or have their own medications, unaware that this may be the early signal of cancer. Routine examination is also affected by the social environment, which celebrity died of cancer news, will enhance the awareness of detection, and did not form a prevention of normalcy. This

The mentality caused many early patients because there is no timely treatment, dragged into advanced patients, resulting in many treatment methods can not be implemented, directly affect the patient's cure rate and survival rate. According to statistics, early detection of many cancer patients, the cure rate can be 80%-90%, and advanced patients may be less than 10%. People should pay attention to the prevention of cancer, if suffering from cancer, early treatment is more conducive to the cure of cancer.

Stay away from cancer prevention attention four aspects

There are many types of cancer, but the pathogenic factors of cancer also have a lot in common, from the diet, prevention and other aspects of attention, can eliminate many of the causes of cancer. Combined with the theme of this World Cancer Day, people should work from the following four aspects, from the self, from the cancer.

Healthy Lifestyle

Currently, at least 1/3 of cancers can be prevented by reducing alcohol consumption, eating healthy diets and strengthening physical activity, according to the study. If smoking is reduced, 50% of cancer can be prevented. In addition to these four common risk factors, ultraviolet protection is also the key to preventing skin cancer. In addition, occupational exposure and environmental exposure, such as asbestos, are also important carcinogenic factors. Resource-poor areas are at risk of a "double burden", so developing cancer prevention and control programs not only changes the way people behave, but also prevents tumor infections, such as the hepatitis B virus that causes liver cancer and HPV infection that causes cervical cancer.

Early diagnosis and early treatment

Many cancers have no special clinical manifestations at the early stage and are easily overlooked and misdiagnosed to cause delayed treatment. Because

For some cancers, such as breast cancer, lung cancer, cervical cancer, colorectal cancer, skin cancer, oral cancer and some childhood malignancies, the benefits of early screening programs and treatments are obvious.

Emphasis on effective treatment

In many countries and regions, cancer patients and their families bear a large financial burden, and the impact of death and disability from cancer on the supply of labour is hampering production and development, with global cancer spending expected to reach $458 billion a year by 2030. In the National Cancer Control Program, new, patented, and effective anticancer drugs should be first considered for treatment of cancer patients. Surgery-oriented comprehensive treatment is an effective means to treat cancer, including surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, targeted therapy, biological therapy and other means of joint treatment.

Improve patients ' quality of life

Cancer seriously affects the emotional, physical and mental state of the patient, and the quality of life in cancer patients can be drastically reduced in the years after they are diagnosed. The physical side effects of advanced cancer treatments, such as fertility damage, sexual dysfunction, hair loss, and weight gain, can cause patients to feel inferior and discriminated against, and some even lead to family breakdown. At the same time, the families of cancer patients are also under great psychological pressure, many cancer patients, the family members of their own physical and mental health is also affected. Sometimes some patients can not effectively control cancer pain through drugs, which will bring great impact on the quality of life and psychological stress, including anxiety, despair and fear. Therefore, understanding and coping with the human emotional, mental and physical trauma of cancer will maximize the quality of life of cancer patients and their families.
