Managing cancer involves not just treating the disease but also addressing the physical and emotional well-being of the patient. Strategies include:
Pain management: Using medications and other methods to control pain. Nutritional support: Ensuring the patient maintains a healthy diet to support their treatment and recovery. Psychosocial support: Providing emotional and psychological support through counseling, support groups, and other resources. Palliative care: Focused on providing relief from the symptoms and stress of cancer, improving the quality of life for patients and their families.
Close communication with healthcare providers and a strong support system are crucial for effective cancer management.
