If the recovery of esophageal cancer and cardia cancer patients after surgery is smooth, they can basically have semi-liquid diet when they are discharged from the hospital, and they can continue to have semi-liquid diet after discharge, such as lotus root powder, steamed egg, oatmeal congee, rice porridge, rotten noodles, etc. One month after the operation, they can gradually transition to normal diet. Pay attention to small meals, according to the need to eat 5 to 8 meals a day, chewing and swallowing. All kinds of food can be eaten as long as they are light, fresh, nutritious and easy to digest. For example: high protein meals such as lean minced meat, eggs, beans, milk and mushrooms (mushrooms, fungus); high calorie meals such as honey, royal jelly, sucrose and vegetable oil, cream, etc.; high vitamin meals such as fresh fruits and vegetables and animal liver; meals rich in trace elements such as shiitake mushrooms, kelp, seaweed, purple seaweed, egg yolks, pumpkin, goji berries, Chinese yam and so on. Avoid foods that are irritating to the stomach and tend to aggravate reflux, such as coffee, alcohol, chocolate, citrus, carbonated beverages, onions, peppermint, chili peppers and garlic. Be sure to strictly quit smoking. Pay attention to avoid lying down for 2 hours after meals, you can take a proper walk for about 30 minutes before resting, and sleep with the upper body elevated (the head of the bed elevated by about 30 degrees). Do not consume fluids within 1 hour before going to bed. If there is acid reflux, easy to fullness, choking and other discomfort, no need to be nervous, because of the removal of the cardia, coupled with the weakening of gastrointestinal emptying function, the stomach food and gastric juices sometimes reflux to the esophagus caused by the discomfort, after the above dietary and positional adjustments can be relieved most of the time, such as still can not be relieved, you can take some drugs such as omeprazole, morbidoline, etc. to control. If there are diarrhea symptoms, it may be related to the gastrointestinal dysfunction after surgery, and some anti-diarrhea drugs can be taken in addition to dietary adjustments. If you need to receive postoperative consolidation therapy (chemotherapy, radiotherapy, etc.), it usually starts 3~4 weeks after the operation, and the chemotherapy is repeated once a month, or 4~6 times depending on the situation. The details are subject to the doctor’s arrangement. Chinese medicines, including proprietary Chinese medicines and Chinese herbs, can be taken in conjunction with the treatment. It is recommended to use the medication under the guidance of an experienced Chinese medicine practitioner, and not to take some so-called partial prescriptions and secret prescriptions casually, in order to avoid the harm of toxic side effects. If necessary, some immunomodulatory drugs and biological products such as interferon can be applied under the guidance of physicians. Long-term regular follow-up should be adhered to, every three months for two years after the operation, every six months thereafter, and then extended to once a year after the fifth year. Finally, we should have a correct understanding of our own condition and the side effects during treatment, and we must keep optimistic and cheerful mood, and firmly believe that we will be able to overcome the disease. Only by adjusting the mentality and actively cooperating with the treatment can we mobilize the internal anti-disease mechanism of the body, and negativity and pessimism are very unfavorable to the recovery.
