Q. What are some lung cancer treatments?

Doctor Answer is medically reviewed by SecondMedic medical review team.

Answered by Secondmedic Expert

Lung cancer treatment options depend on various factors, such as the type of lung cancer and its stage of development. Common treatments for lung cancer include surgery to remove the tumor, radiation therapy to target and kill cancer cells, chemotherapy to reduce tumour size and attack other areas where the disease may have spread, immunotherapy drugs that use a patient's immune system to fight off tumours or even gene therapy techniques designed to stop abnormal growths from forming. Additionally, lifestyle modifications such as eating a healthy diet, getting regular exercise and managing stress levels are all key components in helping patients manage their condition more effectively. No matter which type of treatment is used for lung cancer care should be tailored specifically for each individual’s unique needs. Patients should also stay informed about new research developments as these could lead to advances in treatments that could improve outcomes greatly.
