The natural course of nasopharyngeal cancer from early development to middle or late stage usually ranges from 3-13 months, but it still depends on the individual situation. Specific instructions are as follows: Common clinical symptoms of nasopharyngeal cancer are nasal congestion, blood in the snot, hearing loss, diplopia and headache, etc. It is a malignant tumor that occurs at the top and side wall of nasopharyngeal cavity. Radiation therapy is the first choice of treatment for nasopharyngeal cancer, which is the radical treatment for nasopharyngeal cancer with moderate sensitivity to radiation therapy. However, for some highly differentiated cancers, as well as cases of recurrence after radiotherapy, surgical resection and chemotherapy are the best approaches. Early-stage nasopharyngeal cancer can be cured by radiotherapy alone, while middle and late-stage nasopharyngeal cancer usually needs to choose the comprehensive treatment of radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy in order to achieve better therapeutic effect. To prevent nasopharyngeal cancer, it is important to maintain good living habits, quit smoking and drinking, do more exercise, and stay away from smoky and dusty environments, and be alert to nasopharyngeal cancer if symptoms such as blood in the mucus, hearing loss, diplopia, and headache occur and are not solved after treatment. Consult the doctor as early as possible for examination and treatment.
