Hello, Stage II cancers are curable when treated with surgery, chemotherapy and radiation therapy. In this stage, cancer may affect nearby lymph nodes but is still relatively contained. So, it's curable and there are high chances of survival. Therefore, visit your nearest oncologist as early as possible for further treatment. Hope our answer helps.

Three years back I was diagnosed with Colon cancer and treated for that. I was cancer-free after the treatment. But recently, I had to do a CT scan for a non-cancer purpose and then the doctor said there is a spot. So he asked me to have some other tests. Then one tumor was discovered during the PET scan, it's a new one. It's a particularly aggressive malignancy, and I'm losing a significant portion of my liver. And I'll have to go through chemo once more. I feel numb to thinking about the trauma I have to go through again. Can you please help with a doctor for a second opinion?
Male | 38
You need to consult a medical oncologist so that he can guide you for the proper treatment.

I was diagnosed with lung melanoma 6 months ago. Doctor gave three suggestions immunotherapy, radiotherapy or just asked to wait for three months and then do a PET scan again. And if the situation change, then only go for therapy. Otherwise, repeat the test after another three months. I am unable to take any decision. Can you please suggest to me what I should do now? Should I go for a second opinion or choose therapy?
The oncologist needs to analyze the problem and need to study the entire case for the treatment.

One of my relatives is suffering from cancer can chemotherapy completely cure his cancer.
As per my understanding you want to know if chemotherapy can cure cancer completely. Treatment of cancer to a great extent depends on type of cancer, stage of Cancer, location of the cancer, general condition of patient, associated comorbidities and weighing benefits over risk for advising a particular line of treatment. Consult an oncologist, who on evaluation will guide through the necessary treatment. This page might help - 10 Best Oncologist In India.

Good morning. On examination of the CT scan and the MRI they detected a thymoma, with a benign appearance. Do you think I should remove it or do a biopsy first? THANKS
Female | 65
First, a biopsy should be performed in order to confirm the diagnosis of thymoma. When the diagnosis is made, it should be surgically removed. See a thoracic surgeon to have correct diagnosis and management.

I have pain in my throat।।I m a smoker do I have throat cancer
Male | 30
Persistent throat pain can have many causes.. and while smoking is a known risk factor for throat cancer, it doesn't necessarily mean you have cancer if you experience throat pain. There are many other possible reasons for throat discomfort, like infections, allergies, acid reflux, or even smoking-related issues like irritation and inflammation. If you're very concerned you can visit for a checkup at your nearest cancer hospital.

What is the treatment option for colon cancer in stage 2. What is the survival rate in stage 2?
As per my understanding you want to know the survival rate of stage 2 colon cancer. Colon cancer Stage II (adenocarcinoma) is a common and curable cancer. Depending on features of the cancer, 60-75% of patients are cured without evidence of cancer recurrence following treatment with surgery alone. Also the age of the patient, comorbidities, his general health condition also influences the outcome of the cancer. But still consult an oncologist - Best Oncologist In India. Hope our answer helps you.

I want to ask i have cancer on my tonsil and it touches my tongue also and upper part and my gum also and it is on G2 stage which treatment is best for me my age is 44
Male | 44
Cancer on the tonsil, spreading to your tongue and gum, is serious. With G2 stage cancer, treatment is crucial for survival. Treatment options may involve surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy combined. The aim is removing cancer cells and preventing further spread. Your treatment plan depends on specific details of your case and overall health condition. Discuss thoroughly with your oncologist to determine the best approach. Early detection and appropriate treatment increase chances of recovery significantly.

My father was diagnosed with Esophageal cancer 5 years back and treated with surgery and chemo in Chennai. He was cancer free. But he was recently diagnosed with gastric cancer at an early stage. Doctor asked it is curable but we are anxious cause he is 69 and we really don't know whether he can take this trauma. Please suggest a good hospital in Chennai that is good for Gastric cancer
In very early cancers I.e stage 1 mucosal - just an excision from inside the stomach is needed. It can be done endoscopically without any sutures or scars. However if it is slightly advanced, then the surgery will be a bit complex as he already has undergone surgery for the esophagus. However if the disease is limited, he should definitely undergo treatment for the stomach cancer .
