Adhere to the treatment and carry the medicine with you During the Chinese New Year, many tumor patients leave the hospital and reunite with their families, resulting in a gap in the treatment. Moreover, under the influence of traditional concepts such as “it is unlucky to take medicine in Chinese New Year”, some people stop taking medicine without authorization or reduce the dosage in order to get a good omen, which leads to a sharp deterioration of the condition after the festival. The etiology and treatment of tumor are very complicated, and it is a chronic disease. If you stop or reduce the medicine without authorization and interrupt the treatment, it is especially easy to make the disease recurring, and various adverse reactions and even the disease progressing.

Therefore, tumor patients should keep exercising when their condition and physical strength allow. Appropriate exercise can not only promote blood circulation, accelerate the body’s metabolism and soothe nervous and anxious emotions, but also help patients maintain stable and good moods, which in turn can adjust the endocrine and immune functions, improve the patients’ physical condition of cancer, and achieve better recovery results. Of course, during the Spring Festival, the weather is cold, public places are crowded, and tumor patients have poor immunity and are prone to secondary infections. Outdoor exercise should pay attention to warmth, choose places with good air circulation and fewer people, and take aerobic exercise as the main focus, and the duration should not be more than one hour. For patients with poor physical strength, you can also walk around indoors, do not stay in bed for a long time. Fourth, live and work regularly, have a good mood every day, visit friends and relatives during Chinese New Year, it is easy to disrupt the regular work and rest habits, but sleep is a good medicine for tumor patients, which not only can enhance their immunity and accelerate the recovery process of various tissues and organs, but also can give patients a comfortable psychological environment. Therefore, sufficient sleep time and good sleep rhythm should be ensured to improve the quality of sleep. In addition, the atmosphere of festivals and the meeting and parting of friends and relatives may cause emotional changes in tumor patients, who need more emotional care. Family members should observe carefully, accompany and communicate with each other, so that they can maintain a positive and sunny mindset!
