Cervical Cancer care deals with monitoring the changes taking place in a victim’s body from the time to detection of tumors and includes methods falling within the scope of Cervical Cancer diagnosis and cure and also includes prevention tips necessary to curb cancerous cells at the earliest and avoid cervical cancer recurrence.
Importance and Pattern of Cervical Cancer Care
Cervical cancer is a kind of malignant development in cervical areas and grows in a very gradual manner in initial cervical cancer stages. The growth of cancerous cells can be easily identifiable if proper detection methods are executed considering various habits and pattern of lifestyle of the victim. Cervical cancer causes need to be identified well and examined carefully in coordination with various symptoms displayed by the victim. Each victim may show a different set of symptoms though the stage of disease she is passing through may be equivalent to some other patient. Also, the causes behind the cancerous development may vary in the intensity of impact they cause on the victim and primarily rely on the status of immune system a victim possesses.
Cervical cancer care provides guidelines about various detection methods to be executed in order to trace and monitor cell abnormalities in cervical region and predict average prognosis rate for the victim. It also assists a patient in bringing various health concerns to the notice of physician so that an apt cure can be initiated accordingly.
Cervical cancer can be traced through various diagnosis tests like biopsy, cone biopsy, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scan, cystoscopy, Intravenous Pyelogram (IVP) colposcopy, Loop Electrical Excision Procedure (LEEP), Computed Tomography (CT) scan, Endocervical Curettage etc. PAP (Papanicolaou) smear test is another very common and easily accessible method of detection of the disease and can be practiced independently without any special medical supervision.
Conducting PAP smear test on regular basis is very important and helpful in keeping a track on changes taking place in cervical and other areas and the output obtained in the test forms an important basis for further cure. Cervical cancer is more common in developing and poor nations as compared to developed ones. The main reason behind this imbalance is the frequency of PAP test undergone by victims. Women in developed nations have easy access to the test and are sufficiently aware of its benefits.
AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome) is one of the major factors causing cancer of cervix. The disease makes cells and tissues present in cervical and other adjacent areas to function unnaturally and make conditions suitable for malignant infection to grow. Presence of HPV (Human Papillomavirus) creates severe health issues in cervical areas and increases the chances of cervix cancer to a great extent.
Smoking is a major cause of the disorder and should be avoided. Some may also suffer from the disease due to high consumption of alcohol. People who have taken cervical or other cancer treatments in the past or have family history of the disorder should be extra-cautious about various health issues that do not heal by usual medication.
Cervical cancer care can be best undergone under proper medical attention though a few home remedies are also available to prevent or cure the disorder in a phased manner. Chances of low survival rate keep on increasing with increase in age of the victim and thus, proper check on abnormal functioning of cervix should be kept.
