Patients with esophageal cancer who have choking cough after operation can be relieved by general treatment, drug treatment and surgery. 1. General treatment: patients should pay attention to rest, increase water intake appropriately, take fluids or semi-fluids with high content of proteins and vitamins as the main staple, and avoid eating hard, spicy and stimulating foods. 2. Drug treatment: choking and coughing after operation of esophageal cancer may be caused by nerve damage, so patients can take nerve-nourishing drugs such as vitamin B, methylcobalamin, etc., and cough suppressants such as dextromethorphan and codeine phosphate tablets under doctor’s guidance to alleviate the symptoms of choking and coughing. 3. Surgery: For patients with respiratory system tumor caused by metastasis of cancer cells, bronchial tube damage or foreign body caused by surgery and anesthesia operation, patients can be treated by surgery to improve the symptoms of choking cough. It is suggested that patients should strictly follow the doctor’s prescription, actively cooperate with the doctor’s treatment, do a good job of monitoring the condition in their life, and seek medical treatment in time once the condition worsens.
