Aerobic Exercises versus Laser Puncture Therapy on Immune Response Following Neck Lymph Node Dissection
Background: The treatment of head and neck cancers is still difficult and calls for a multidisciplinary strategy that includes surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, and systemic therapy. Purpose: In the current academic work, the effects of aerobic exercise and laser puncture on immunological responses following neck lymph node removal were assessed and compared. Subjects and Methods: After dissection of the neck lymph nodes, forty male cases with decreased total leukocyte counts and differential lymphocyte counts. They were sub-categorized into two equal groups randomly. Group (A) had two months treatment plan of 15 minutes per day, every other day, of aerobic exercise. Group (B) had a two-month treatment plan of 15 minutes per day, every other day, of laser puncture in the depression beneath the spinous process of C7 at Governor Vessel (GV - 14 Dazhui). Leukocyte total count and a differential lymphocyte count were utilized in the current work as evaluation techniques. Results: The results demonstrated the effectiveness of both aerobic exercise training and laser puncture in the depression beneath the spinous process of C7 at Governor Vessel (GV - 14 Dazhui). However, aerobic exercise training was more successful and helpful in boosting the decreased immune response than the laser puncture. Conclusion: The outcomes of the current academic work highlighted the fact that aerobic exercise is preferable, and low-level laser puncture is also crucial in boosting the immune response.
