What are the Treatment Options for Cancer-Related Coughing or Hoarseness?
Treatment options vary depending on the type, location, and stage of cancer. Common treatments include surgery to remove tumors, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy. In cases where tumors are causing airway obstruction, procedures to relieve the blockage, such as stenting or laser therapy, may be necessary. Symptomatic treatments, including medications to suppress cough or manage hoarseness, can also be part of the care plan.
