1. What is Colorectal Cancer?
Abnormal proliferation of colon mucosal cells that invades surrounding tissues and may metastasize to other parts of the body, causing intestinal bleeding, obstruction, and damage to normal tissues.
2. Common Symptoms:
Changes in bowel habits, feeling of incomplete evacuation after bowel movements, blood in stool, abdominal cramping, decreased appetite, anorexia, weight loss, fatigue, and jaundice. Having these symptoms does not necessarily mean colorectal cancer — please consult a doctor.
3. High-Risk Groups for Colorectal Cancer:
Older age, family history, familial polyposis syndrome, history of polyps, diets high in animal fats, protein, processed foods, and low fiber intake.
4. Treatment of Colorectal Cancer:
The primary treatment is surgery. Post-surgery, adjuvant therapies may be combined, including chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and targeted therapy, to reduce local recurrence, increase survival rates, and improve quality of life.
5. Home Self-Care Guidelines:
(1) After colorectal cancer surgery, eat small frequent meals with high-calorie, high-protein, low-residue foods. Avoid whole milk, cold foods, and gas-producing foods such as beans, nuts, sweet potatoes, glutinous rice, etc., to prevent bloating. If diarrhea occurs, ensure adequate hydration and electrolyte supplementation. (2) Patients receiving chemotherapy or radiation therapy should maintain good hygiene, drink plenty of water, keep oral hygiene, and avoid public places. If unavoidable, wear a mask to reduce infection risk. (3) Engage in appropriate exercise and maintain a positive attitude. (4) Get adequate sleep and rest. (5) Attend follow-up appointments on schedule. (6) If persistent high fever, bloody stools, or severe diarrhea occurs, seek medical attention immediately.

Tumor Treating Fields (TTFields) generally do not affect normal cells because tumor cells have different electrical properties (conductivity and permittivity) compared to normal cells. Tumor cells have relatively higher electrical properties, making them more sensitive to external electric fields. The side effects of TTFields therapy are very minimal compared to chemotherapy, with no reports of any significant adverse effects.
The duration of TTFields therapy must be determined by a physician, who will evaluate whether to continue treatment after follow-up observations.
It is recommended to consume adequate albumin, vitamin C, flavonoids, and olive oil to support normal immune system function.
TTFields technology was developed by Professor Warsito P. Taruno and the CTech Laboratory team at Edward Technology (IDN Patent No. REGP00201200092, 2012).
(TTFields) A cancer adjuvant therapy that can be received at home.
