Kindly visit a surgical oncologist for the staging and relevant treatment. The centre for treatment depends on your location. You should visit a tertiary care cancer hospital if thats possible for you.

Female | 52
Cancer is tough, but there's hope. Please let the doctor know if she feels worse even after treatment. Some symptoms such as coughing, pain, or feeling weak are of multiple possibilities. The doctor possibly has to ascertain if the cancer has recurred or if there is another problem. Waiting is not a good choice especially when you tell them how your mother is doing.

Hi, I want to ask can patient with diabetes do Pet Scan?
As per my understanding your patient is diabetic and needs to undergo a pet scan. If diabetes is under control and any other vital organs like kidney are functioning normally and if not contraindicated, then definitely the patient can undergo pet scan. But you need to consult Physician so that he can guide you regarding pet scan. Hope our answer helps you. You can refer this page to find doctors who can give second opinions - General Physicians in India.

Is cancer treatment in ayurveda? Stage 2,3rd jaws infected
Male | 37
Ayurveda offers supportive care for cancer, including natural remedies to boost immunity and reduce side effects, but it is not a substitute for conventional cancer treatment. For stage 2 or 3 jaw cancer, it is essential to consult an oncologist or a specialized oncologist for appropriate treatment options like surgery, radiation, or chemotherapy. Always rely on expert medical advice and treatments.

Can you cure colon cancer stage 4
Female | 37
Curing colon cancer at stage 4 is difficult but it is not impossible. The primary treatment for stage 4 colon cancer is chemotherapy, which aims to shrink the cancer or in some cases radiation therapy is used. Consult an oncologist who can recommend a proper treatment plan for you.

Can u cure the 1st stage of cancer
Male | 40
When we talk about cancer, early detection is the key. The 1st stage signifies that the tumors are still small and have not developed into metastasis yet. Symptoms may not be obvious, but you might notice some unusual body changes. Causes may differ, but always it is not clear why they emerge. The main solution for 1st-stage cancer is to remove or destroy the abnormal cells through treatments like surgery, radiation therapy, or chemotherapy. The end goal of these therapies is to eliminate cancer and prevent its recurrence. Timely diagnosis and treatment are the factors controlling successful acute leukemia treatment in the first stage.

Her 2 POSITIVE Right Breast Cancer ,after Chemo sessions planned for surgery, how many methods of surgeries are available, is there any difference of methodology from other hospitals of Hyderabad to Tata Memorial one. want to have opinion for the surgery sir,
Female | 57
There are several different methods of surgery that can be used to treat right breast cancer. The most common treatments are mastectomy (removal of the entire breast), breast-conserving surgery, and lymph node dissection. The type of surgery for you will depend on the size and location of the tumor, the stage of the cancer, and the your individual preferences. The methodology for performing surgery at Tata Memorial Hospital is likely to be similar to that of other hospitals in Hyderabad. However, there may be slight differences due to the individual expertise and experience of the surgeons at each hospital. You discuss your options with your doctor and ask for their opinion on the best type of surgery for you.

I am a 24 year old girl presenting all classic symptoms of hogdkins lymphoma, but im not sure what is the next step
Female | 24
I know it is hard to have symptoms that seem like Hodgkin's lymphoma. This kind of cancer can make the lymph nodes swell up. It can make you feel very tired too. You might lose weight without trying. You might get sweaty at night. The best thing to do is see a doctor who treats cancer. The doctor might need to do a test called a biopsy to know for sure if you have Hodgkin's lymphoma. The biopsy can help the doctor plan the right treatment for you.

Female | 57
Yes there are various treatment options available. But you must consult with an oncologist or cancer specialist to discuss best treatment options. Radiation therapy, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, or immunotherapy are the treatment options for cancer normally. Alternative treatments can be used alongside traditional cancer treatments to improve overall well-being.

I am 49 years old. It has been a month now I have noticed that I have been experiencing pain and a burning sensation during urinating. I consulted with my gynec and she prescribed vaginal suppositories. Initially I got relief but then again it started. I feel the need to go to the washroom more frequently than usual. I am not diabetic. After all this, I didn't take it seriously. But for the last 2-3 days I had difficulties in holding it. Now I feel this is very serious because I am not old enough for this problem. I searched on the internet and found it could be a reason for bladder cancer. Is that so? Please refer to a good female doctor. I am perplexed about all these and it's making my life miserable.
Hi , don’t worry abt cancer and all.I feel it’s a urinary tract infection, get a urine routine microscopy test followed by urine culture and sensitivity.If urine routine report shows pus cells and bacteria then our diagnosis is confirmed. Visit a gynecologist with your reports.
