Bone metastasis in patients with gastric cancer usually indicates that the disease has progressed to an advanced stage. Comprehensive treatment measures need to be taken based on specific conditions, and cannot be generalized. Here are some possible treatment options:
1. General Treatment: If the patient's symptoms are mild or there are no obvious discomforts, conservative observation and symptomatic supportive treatment can be conducted. A diet of light and digestible foods should be preferred.
2. Radiotherapy or Chemotherapy: For patients with clear indications for targeted drugs, anti-tumor drugs such as Oxaliplatin Injection can be used under the guidance of a physician to control the progression of the disease. Local treatment can also be performed through radiation therapy, which can inhibit the growth and spread of cancer cells, thereby relieving clinical symptoms.
3. Surgical Resection: If the patient's physical condition permits, palliative surgery can be performed to remove the lesion site, but the recurrence rate after surgery is high, and regular follow-up is required.
4. Other Methods: Other treatment options include immunotherapy, genetic testing and personalized medication, as well as traditional Chinese medicine for adjuvant therapy. Suitable treatment methods can be selected based on individual conditions and evaluated by professional physicians.
In daily life, patients should avoid strenuous exercise and heavy physical labor to prevent aggravation of pain and other symptoms. Maintaining a good mindset and actively cooperating with doctors in treatment can help improve quality of life.
