Melanoma skin cancer in stage 4 . How I increase survival rate
Female | 44
Stage 4 melanoma skin cancer means the disease has moved to other body parts. You may notice weird moles, spots that change, and feel unwell. Too much sunlight exposure causes it. Treatments like surgery, chemo, immunotherapy, and targeted therapy help. But survival rates rise by listening to your oncologist and checking regularly.

my mother is 71 years old diagnosed with uterus cancer. her surgery has been done and now we want to take guidelines what next we need to do
Female | 71
This type of cancer often leads to irregular bleeding and discomfort in the pelvic region. Following surgery, chemotherapy or radiation may eliminate lingering cancer cells. Regular medical examinations are crucial to track her condition. Please visit an oncologist for a personalized treatment plan.

my uncle had scc on left lateral border of tongue and underwent widelocal excision and adj chemo and radio but with in 9 months it was reoccured in the opp field @ right lateral border of the tongue can please suggest me the further treatment plan and etiology/ cause for the reoccurrence kindly
Male | 47
Your uncle's situation with recurrent squamous cell carcinoma on the opposite side of his tongue is difficult. Treating this type of cancer again can involve surgery, radiation therapy, or combining both approaches. The reason for recurrence often stems from remaining cancerous cells left behind after initial surgery. Your uncle must consult his oncologist about subsequent treatment options available.

Can I take tamoxifen without prescription and can you give a way how to take tamoxifen?
Male | 17
Please don't take tamoxifen without a doctor's order. Tamoxifen is a substance, that a lot of patients with some specific types of breast cancer take, but they have to use it under the care and direction of a medical professional. You should talk this concern over with an oncologist first before trying tamoxifen.
