Does radiotherapy for cervical cancer require hospitalization?

Cervical cancer radiotherapy usually requires hospitalization.
After radiotherapy for cervical cancer, patients may have adverse reactions, such as nausea, vomiting, headache, etc. It is necessary to observe the patients in detail to determine whether they need to be hospitalized after chemotherapy. If patients are relatively weak after radiotherapy for cervical cancer, they need to be hospitalized for rest and recuperation, and they should not overwork to avoid aggravation of their condition.
As the skin at the radiotherapy site will be stimulated after radiotherapy, patients may suffer from adverse symptoms such as radiation cystitis, radiation enteritis, etc. Patients and their family members need to pay attention to this and try to wear loose and comfortable clothes to avoid friction of the site with clothes, which may cause secondary damage to the skin.
After radiotherapy for cervical cancer, the vagina will be affected by radiation, and there will be different degrees of swelling and congestion, and the secretion may also increase. Patients can wash their vagina regularly to avoid vaginal adhesion after infection, which will aggravate the condition of the patients.
