A significant portion of the global population is afflicted with cancer, a serious disease of global public health. The most prevalent form of cancer affecting people in India is head and neck cancer. Numerous patients die from cancer as a result of the disease’s severity, which impacts millions of people in India. According to average estimates, India is to blame for 71% of South-East Asia’s head and neck cancer mortality rates.
In India, the course of treatment for cancer differs from state to state. When it comes to cancer treatment in India, there are additional aspects as well, such as infrastructure and treatment regimens.
There is a tonne of information available about the delivery, protocol, and results of head and neck cancer treatment in India. A collection of tumours that affect the head and neck are referred to as “head and neck cancer.” Men and people over 50 are most susceptible to this type of cancer. Common signs include:
Consult with your family doctor first if you notice any symptoms that seem off. Which test you should do can be advised by a doctor for your health. Here is a list of examinations that medical professionals use to check for malignant growths in your body.
Chemotherapy: Chemotherapy kills cancer cells by using anti-cancer medicines. Drugs are frequently injected into veins. Following that, drugs dissolving in the blood travel to the cancer cells and kill them. For these cancer patients, radiation therapy is combined with chemotherapy. Radiation treatment has been demonstrated to be less successful than chemotherapy in treating head and neck cancers.
Surgery: Cancer-affected tissues, along with some nearby healthy tissue, may be removed by surgeons. Using laser technology, surgeons treat early-stage tumours. If neck lymph nodes contribute to the spread of cancer, they can also be surgically removed. The patient’s capacity for speaking, chewing, and swallowing may change after head and neck surgery.
Radiation Therapy: Many individuals with head and neck cancer have been treated with radiation therapy, either by themselves or in conjunction with chemotherapy. High-energy x-rays are used in this therapy to eliminate the cancer cells in your head and neck area.
The type of cancer determines how successfully patients with head and neck cancer are treated. Head and neck cancers have a success rate of 60 to 70% if detected early and treated effectively.
Depending on the stage of the malignancy, it may be treated with a combination of surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, and targeted/immunotherapy. For example, Head and neck cancer treatment costs in India depend on the surgery. Cancer can treat by surgery in stages 0 to 1, whereas more advanced stages may call for radiation, chemotherapy, and surgery. Head and neck cancer treatment costs in India range between Rs 5 and Rs 6 lakh.
