Amputation
The patient may experience substantial distress and suffering as a result of their amputation. Furthermore, treatment and social assistance are only temporary solutions. Rehabilitation and limb prostheses are also beneficial.
- Rehabilitation
After limb-salvage surgery, it is much more acute than after amputation. The limb may become unable to operate without it. It still takes a year for patients to flex their limbs to their full potential using it.
- Shock
Patients who do not recover from the terrible experience of undergoing cancer treatment are diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). It could make you shiver or give you the shivers.
- Shortness of breath
Following the surgical removal of a lung metastasis, another concern is breathing problems.
- Hemorrhage
The risk of shococcy is increased if there is uncontrollable bleeding or inexplicable bruises at the surgical site.
- Reconstructive surgery's side effects
The malignant section of the upper arm is removed, and the lower arm is connected, leaving one arm shorter than the other.
- Infection of the wound
Flesh wounds left over from surgery increase the danger of bacteria exposure, slowing recovery and putting the patient vulnerable to a variety of infections.
- Anesthesia's side effects
Anesthesia and surgery for metastasis are not suited for people whose general health is compromised due to heart, liver, or renal problems, or poor nutritional habits.
