Lymphoma requires more water during treatment.
Lymphoma is one of the malignant tumors of the blood system, which can be divided into two categories: Hodgkin’s lymphoma and non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Its etiology may be related to infection and immune factors, physical and chemical factors, genetic factors and so on. The characteristic clinical manifestation is lymph node enlargement, which is most common in the neck, axilla and groin. Meanwhile, it may be accompanied by systemic symptoms, such as anemia, emaciation, fatigue and so on.
The treatment of lymphoma is based on the integrated treatment of chemotherapy plus radiotherapy. After comprehensive treatment, chemotherapy drugs will destroy the tumor cells and produce more metabolic wastes, in order to avoid the effect of metabolic wastes on the body, it is necessary to supplement water to accelerate the metabolism of chemotherapy drugs and metabolic wastes out of the body, and to reduce the adverse reactions.
Therefore, patients should be encouraged to drink more water to enhance the body’s tolerance to chemotherapy and radiotherapy. If diagnosed with lymphoma, early standardized treatment is recommended to reduce the adverse effects of the disease.
