Sir My Sister have Metastasis cancer. Please guide me for the treatment.
Metastasized means that cancer has spread from one region to another, but there's no clarity regarding which area was affected and which region it has metastasized to.
For the area where cancer originally developed, she will require surgery & radiation therapy.
Whereas, for the area to which the cancer spread, she will additionally need chemotherapy, hormone therapy and immunotherapy.

- For pigmented skin & dark circles these are the options:
- OTC creams - apply creams with these ingredients on your spots (Rs. 200 to Rs. 2000):
- Hydroquinone
- Licorice extract
- N-acetylglucosamine
- Vitamin B-3 (niacinamide)
- Chemical Peels (Rs. 1,000 to Rs. 10,000 per session): A solution containing certain acids which are beneficial for your skin, is applied to your skin and peeled off later on. These peels use acids of stronger, mild and moderate strength concentrations to treat the desired area of skin.
- Laser therapy (Rs. 5,000 to Rs. 22,000 per session): Heat from intense light beam vaporizes damaged cells underneath your eyes.
There are two types:- Ablative lasers: are intense and they remove layers of your skin, but they also make you prone to side effects.
- Non-ablative lasers: target the dermis to boost collagen growth and tightening effects.
- OTC creams - apply creams with these ingredients on your spots (Rs. 200 to Rs. 2000):
- Additionally for pigmentation you also have these treatments:
- Microdermabrasion (Rs. 1500 to Rs. 6000 per session): Treats the epidermis only (superficial scarring). During the treatment, your dermatologist will use a drill-like handheld appliance with a wire brush or some other abrasive as its attachment, to swipe over your skin. Same will eliminate epidermal scarring.
- Dermabrasion (Rs. 1500 to Rs. 6000 per session): Involves the removal of your epidermis, but it also manages to reach to a part of your dermis. While dermabrasion smoothens out wrinkles, the procedure has been historically used to address texture-related concerns.
- Additionally for dark circles you also have these treatments:
- There is also a surgical technique to remove fat from your lids if the cast of their shadow is the culprit behind your dark circles, which is known as blepharoplasty (Rs 80,000 - Rs. 2,00,000 overall),
- And otherwise, you can also inject certain acids into the tissues under your eyes, as recommended by trained specialists, so as to overcome volume loss under your eyes which could have contributed to dark circles as well, they are referred to as fillers (Rs. 40,000 to Rs. 60,000).
- Skin tightening:

- The damage caused by this ailment cannot be reversed, but regular checkups & treatments can either slow down the progress of damage, or prevent further loss from taking place.
- The aim is to reduce his eye pressure which is causing vision loss and optic nerve damage, so your grandfather has the following options:
- Prescription eyedrops, oral medicines, laser treatment, and surgery.

- Laser therapy/trabeculoplasty: The doctor uses a small laser beam to open clogged channels causing intraocular pressure.
- Filtering surgery/trabeculectomy: The surgeon makes an incision in the white of the eye (sclera) and removes part of the tissue which causes intraocular pressure.
- Drainage tubes: The surgeon inserts a small tube shunt in patient's eye and drains out excess fluid to decrease eye pressure.
- Minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS): a set of minimally invasive techniques to lower the eye pressure.

Hi. I am 46 years old mother of 2 children aged 13 and 4yrs. In September 2021 I got liposuction and tummy tuck done. After 6 weeks of wearing the prescribed compression garments and daily massages post surgery, I started noticing big, hard eruptions on my stomach area. Some are red and some are very painful. The doctor punctured one of the eruptions to see if any fluid came out but it did not. He then ask me to use Tbac and put me on anti inflammatory medicine+ flexon. Then one day from the eruption i noticed a pus like fluid. Went to the doctor again. A pus culture was done. No bacteria found. Doctor said looks like it is a suture issue with my body not being able to get rid of the dissolvable stitches. He gave me tricort injections on the hard lumps. Now almost 3 weeks later, some are better but new large and painful ones have also formed. Please advise your thoughts on this and what you feel could be wrong. I am very worried.
I think it's still 2 months post surgery. There could be inflammatory reaction because of the sutures. It is possible so we need to see the pictures to evaluate it correctly and I think most of the times they dissolve by themselves. If there's no fever or any other issues, just you can wait for some more time for body to respond to the inflammatory reaction though active intervention is required.
Right now you can share the picture so that we can evaluate it better. still it's just 2 months old we would prefer to wait and watch. You can also visit best plastic surgeon in India for exact treatment.
