Can I Cure Stage 1 Cancer?
Can u cure the 1st stage of cancer
Oncologist
Answered on 4th Sept '24
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.

If your PSA level has risen after previous treatments for prostate cancer,Plz consult with the best oncology hospital in India or your urologist. An increase in PSA levels may indicate a recurrence or progression of the cancer. The next steps will depend on your health, the extent of the cancer, and the treatments you've already received..

My aunt has heart cancer and she’s on the last stage. The doctor said that there’s no treatment but I’m hoping for a cure? Is there any possibilities?
Female | 49
Heart cancer is a very vague term. Usually atrial myxoma is the most common tumour in the heart. And the only best option of treatment of atrial myxomas is surgical removal. Whether the case is operable or inoperable will decide the prognosis.

How can one know she has breast cancer
Female | 20
It is possible to diagnose breast cancer by self-examination in that you have a look and feel for any lumps or other abnormal changes in the tissue. However, please note that breast cancer can also be symptomless, so a person needs to have examinations by an endocrinologist or gynecologist once in a while.

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.

invasive well differentiated squamous cell carcinoma is found is biopsy what should I want to do please guide me
Male | 38
Well-differentiated squamous cell carcinoma is a skin cancer type. It may look like a rough spot, scaly growth, or sore that won't heal. Too much sun causes it. Oncologists treat it by removing with surgery, freezing it, or using radiation. Spotting it early is key, so watch your skin and see a dermatologist if you notice changes.

I want to know about the early signs of throat cancer. What are the treatment options for it? If throat cancer is detected in its early stages, can it be cured without visiting any hospital?
Early signs of throat cancer can be persistent cough, throat irritation, wheezing, difficulty in swallowing, unexplained fatigue, weight loss and many more, but to treat any kind of disease you need to visit a doctor, don't come to a conclusion and don't try to treat it yourself.

I'm 52 years old and have stopped periods since December 2019. Three years ago, I had left breast pain. I consulted a clinic and everything turned out well after mammograms and other procedures. Now after three years I'm still getting the pain and some discomfort in the left breast. I spoke with my usual doctor, but she advised me to visit a breast clinic. She believes it is hormonal but just wants to ensure. Is it possible that this type of breast pain is caused by cancer? I am pretty anxious now and searching on google made me more restless. Is it common in women or something terrible?
Post menopause (after periods) in females may cause many hormonal imbalances which cause pain in breasts, pain in stomach and some discomfort. But a regular check up of breast, PAP smears and ultrasonography investigations at regular intervals is mandatory to check and catch any disorder or disease in early stage. Only after a thorough investigation we can rule out and cancers. For more information you can visit nearest oncologist.

Hello, my aunt was diagnosed with a brain tumor after a bad fall on December 31st. We were advised that surgery would be impossible due to her age and other considerations and she would be unable to undergo chemo, therefore she will be treated solely with steroids. We are not sure about this hence would like to go for a second opinion. She has diabetes also. We are from Kolkata.
Please consult medical oncologist so that he can prescribe you proper line of treatment.
