Abstract
|
Cancerous pain is one of the most common and painful symptoms in advanced cancer patients. About 60%-80% of advanced cancer patients will have cancer pain,which seriously affects the quality of life of patients. At present,the World Health Organization (WHO) three-step analgesic treatment is used to control cancer pain internationally,but because of its side effects,many patients can not tolerate,forcing the termination of treatment. External treatment of traditional Chinese medicine can effectively reduce the side effects caused by analgesic treatment,and has a good analgesic effect,so it is widely used in clinical practice. This article reviews the research progress of external treatment of cancer pain in recent years. |
