According to the tests, there’s no evidence of any major problem such as cancer in either breast, which is fantastic news. The tiny calcification found in the left breast could have resulted from an old infection or inflammation. Currently, there’s no cause for alarm but it’s essential to have another checkup next year to be safe. In case you observe any unusual changes in your breasts before then, please let your doctor know.

Light discharge or whitish fluid from the breast could be due to various reasons, including hormonal changes, medication side effects, or in some cases, benign conditions like intraductal papilloma. It's advisable to consult a breast specialist or a gynecologist for a thorough evaluation and appropriate management based on your specific symptoms and medical history.

I want to know about Triple-negative breast cancer as our doctor hinted that my aunt has signs of this specific type of breast cancer.

Triple negative breast cancer means the growth of cancer cells is not affected by estrogen, progesterone and her2neu pathways. Thus remedies employing alteration of these will not work. Her treatment will depend on the stage and might involve surgery, radiation and chemotherapy. Visit an oncologist or surgical oncologist in mumbai for further advice.

Please tell me how Mastectomy works. Are breasts conserved in this treatment or are they removed in this procedure?

Dr. Akash Dhuru.

Answered on 19th June '24

Mastectomy involves removal of breast. For cancer however if its limited to a small portion of breast, we can conserve the breast while removing a part of breast followed by reconstruction. Kindly visit a surgical oncologist in Mumbai for further details.

Can fibroadenoma be treated with medicine or surgery?

Can axillary fibroadenoma be treated with medicine? If not what is the process and cost of surgery? Is there any chance of future malignancy

Dr. Akash Dhuru.

Dr. Akash Dhuru.

Oncologist

Answered on 19th June '24

Treatment is by surgery and the specimen will be sent for Histopathological examination for confirming diagnosis. Previous benign breast pathologies have slightly higher risk than general population, though the standard screening protocol of SBE and CBE should be followed. You can connect to me for further information. --- Dr. Akash Dhuru (Surgical Oncologist)

Why do I have extreme pain in my left nipple?

I am having extreme pain in my left nipple

Dr. Sridhar Susheela

Dr. Sridhar Susheela

Oncologist

Answered on 10th June '24

It feels painful in the nipple due to a range of causes such as injury, infection, or sometimes even hormonal changes. Be sure to wear loose clothes so as not to make things worse and stop them from rubbing against anything that might irritate them further. You could also try applying a warm compress on it; this might help soothe the pain temporarily but if it’s still there after a while then please go see an oncologist about this as soon as possible.

Should I opt for immunotherapy for TNBC with positive PDL-1 test?

Name sarani toppo world like to ask that recently diagnosed with TNBC .PDL-1 test report is positive Is it mandatory to go for immunotherapy

Dr. Donald Babu

Dr. Donald Babu

Oncologist

Answered on 10th June '24

TNBC is a type of breast cancer that is difficult to treat. A positive PDL-1 test could mean that immunotherapy would be effective. You don’t have to, but it can help your immune system fight off cancer cells more effectively. Immunotherapy adjusts your body’s defenses so they can attack the cancer better. Make sure you discuss this with your oncologist though.

Could Left Nipple Pain at 22 Be Concerning?

I am a girl and my age is 22. I have pain in my left nipple.

Dr. Nisarg Patel

Dr. Nisarg Patel

Social Obstetrics And Gynecologist

Answered on 4th June '24

A throbbing or stabbing sensation in the chest can be triggered at the age of 22 by a variety of issues, such as hormonal transformations, trauma, disease, or particular drugs. Hormonal shifts around the menstrual cycle can cause one or both nipples to hurt. If you are experiencing pain along with other symptoms like redness, swelling, or discharge, see a healthcare professional immediately.

Answered on 23rd May '24

Breast te­nderness might result from hormonal shifts. This fre­quently occurs during menstrual cycles or with ce­rtain medications. Sometimes, it indicate­s pregnancy or a breast infection. To re­duce discomfort, wear a supportive bra. Apply warm compre­sses. Avoid caffeine. If te­nderness persists or worse­ns, consult a gyneoclogist for e­valuation.
