Patients with advanced lung cancer may suffer from multiple severe symptoms that not only affect the quality of life of the patient, but may also endanger life. The following are three of the most serious symptoms of terminal lung cancer, as well as a brief description of palliative care (pension care):
I. The three most serious symptoms of late lung cancer
1. Respiratory difficulties:
In the late stages of lung cancer, neoplasms may occupy lung space, causing damage to lung tissue and restriction of the airway, leading to respiratory difficulties.
As the condition deteriorates, respiratory difficulties may gradually increase, requiring the patient to rely on devices such as assistive respiratory devices or oxygen absorbers to sustain life.
2. Cough or sip with blood:
Patients with advanced lung cancer may experience severe coughs as a result of the continuous destruction of lung tissue by cancer cells.
Blood may be found in the sting, as a result of the haemorrhage caused by carcinocellular erosion.
Coughs and blood in the sips not only affect the quality of life of patients, but can also cause lung infections and inflammations, while repeated infections can cause patients to die from shock.
Waste and physical failure:
Late-term lung cancer can be characterized by wasting, weakness, weakness and physical incapacitation due to the effects of the disease.
These symptoms may be related to chemotherapy, treatment, or surgical treatment, but may also be due to the harmful progress of the cancer itself.
4. Chestwater
In late pulmonary cancer, tumours may infringe on the pleural membranes, resulting in pleural irritation and excessive fluids that accumulate into pleural water. In addition, the advanced stage of lung cancer may lead to increased pneumonia, infection or vascular penetration, thus further promoting the formation of breast water.
Symptoms of chest water:
The chest water oppresses the lungs, leads to inadequate ventilation and causes respiratory difficulties. This respiratory difficulty may increase with the increase in breast water and may even be felt in a static situation.
The tumour irritation or intrusion of the plethora gives rise to chest pain, usually in the centre or side of the chest, which may be aggravated by cough or deep breath.
Because of the spread of cancer cells to bronchial walls or other respiratory structures, mucous inflammation and oedema may lead to continuous dry cough or severe cough.
Skinning and physical failure may prevent patients from carrying out normal daily activities or even from taking care of themselves.
II. Peace and healing (penalty care)
For patients with advanced lung cancer, palliative care (pension care) may be a suitable option as the disease progresss to an irreversible stage. The appeasement is intended to provide the patient with physical and psychological comfort and comfort, to alleviate his or her suffering and to help the patient and his or her family face imminent death. The restive care includes the following:
1. Pain management: to alleviate pain through, inter alia, medication, physiotherapy or psychological support.
Symptoms control: appropriate measures are taken to alleviate the patient ‘ s respiratory difficulties, cough and wasting symptoms.
Psychological support: psychological counselling and consolation for patients and their families to help them face the fear and anxiety of death.
4. Living care: providing daily care and support for patients, such as diet, cleaning and turning over.
In short, patients with advanced lung cancer may face multiple severe symptoms, and palliative care can provide them with physical and psychological comfort and comfort. In the face of illness and death, patients and families should maintain a positive mentality and seek the help and support of professional medical teams.
