What do you mean by irregular ribs in lung cancer?
Lung cancer is a common fatal malignant tumor. When the condition of lung cancer patients gets worse, the ribs may be irregular. This irregular phenomenon refers to the fracture or variation of the rib invaded by the tumor, which makes the shape of the rib no longer irregular, showing osteoporosis, hyperplasia and dead bone. Irregular ribs in lung cancer can cause severe pain and dyspnea, which seriously affects the daily life of patients.

The treatment of irregular ribs in lung cancer mainly depends on the condition, which usually includes drug therapy, physical therapy and surgical treatment. Drug therapy can relieve pain symptoms by giving patients painkillers, and physical therapy mainly includes magnetic therapy, acupuncture and so on. And surgical treatment is used for resection and plastic surgery when the ribs are severely deformed. The choice of treatment depends on the patient's specific situation.

In daily life, actively preventing lung cancer is the most basic preventive measure. Smoking and second-hand smoke should be avoided as far as possible, and good eating habits and living habits should be maintained to enhance the body's immunity. For patients with lung cancer, attention should be paid to maintaining physical strength and avoiding strenuous exercise during the treatment, and at the same time, good nursing and timely medical treatment should be done to avoid aggravation of the disease.
