For patients with advanced stage of lung cancer, they should pay attention to bed rest and avoid over exertion; when walking with gasping, they should sit down or semi-recumbent rest, and if necessary, follow doctor’s instruction to inhale oxygen to improve the uncomfortable symptoms. In addition to rest, patients with advanced lung cancer should actively cooperate with doctors in targeted therapy, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, etc., which can help control the progress of the disease, prolong the survival time, and alleviate the uncomfortable symptoms caused by the disease.
