Hi, I want to know about Palliative Chemotherapy. Recently, my aunt was suggested this treatment by her Oncologist when she was diagnosed with 3rd stage Pancreatic Cancer. I wanted to know if this is a specific stage-based treatment or is it given for all kinds of cancer?
Palliative chemotherapy is a treatment that is designed for terminal cancer patients to prolong their survival and ease symptoms of cancer, but does not cure disease. It can be administered in a variety of ways with the most common being:
- Orally: Pills taken by mouth.
- Intravenously (IV): Infused through a vein.
- Topically: Applied to the skin.
Consult Cancer Treatment doctors in Mumbai, or any city nearer to you. Hope our answer helps you.

I have liver cancer what a solution?
Male | 30
You might feel worried about liver cancer. This type of cancer leads to tummy pains, losing weight, and yellow skin/eyes. Cell changes in the liver cause it. Surgery, chemo, targeted therapy treat it. An oncologist gives the best care advice.

Hello Dr my daughter is 4 yrs old she suffering from lymphoma notes wha to do now
Female | 4
Your daughter has lymphoma. This is a kind of cancer that affects the body's germ fighters. Some signs are swollen lymph nodes, weight loss without trying, and feeling very tired. We don't know exactly what causes lymphoma, but things like infections or changes in genes may play a part. There are treatments like chemo, radiation, and sometimes surgery. Doctors will make a special treatment plan for your daughter. It's important to work closely with her medical team.

Hello, I am 75 years old male suffering from esophageal cancer (malignant sq. cell Carcinoma, grade-II). Please suggest me treatment for the same.
Male | 75
Treatment depends on the stage of cancer, health condition and patient's age. Surgery, chemo, radiation therapy or a combination of all these may be included in the treatment. But that can be confirmed after physical diagnosis. At an early stage, surgery may be the only treatment. If advanced stage then chemotherapy and radiation therapy may be required to shrink the tumor before or after surgery.

I am a patient of rectal cancer with adenocarcinoma with cignet ring cell carcinoma, and got immunotherapy in ayurvedic through oral medications also got almost cured for three months. But again rectal bleeding and severe pain started and there is wound pist radiotherapy just at bottom inside layer of anus.
Male | 33
It's possible that the wound from your radiotherapy treatment has not fully healed or that there may be other factors contributing to your symptoms. You should communicate openly with your doctor about your symptoms, concerns, and treatment history, as they will have the best understanding of your problems.

PET-CT scan impression report shows. 1. Hypermetabolic spiculated mass in lower lobe of right lung. 2. Hypermetabolic right hilar and sub carinal lymph nodes. 3. Hypermetabolic nodule in left adrenal gland and hypodense lesion in left kidney 4. hypermetabolic multiple lytic sclerotic lesions in axial & appendicular skeleton. Lesion in proximal end of femur is susceptible for pathological fracture. which stage the cancer might be in.? How far the cancer has spread?
Male | 40
The findings from this PET-CT scan suggest the presence of multiple hypermetabolic (actively metabolizing) lesions in various parts of the body. This pattern of findings raises concerns about the possibility of metastatic cancer, meaning that cancer may have spread from its original site to other areas of the body. The exact stage and extent of cancer would require further evaluation by an oncologist from the best cancer hospital in India, including additional tests and imaging.

My wife has gone through stage 2nd Stage of breast cancer in 2019 and operated on the right breast. Then went through 12 cycles of chemotherapy. According to the reports, Doctors said she is now cancer free. But we are very confused as we are asked to visit hospital every year for check ups. We are in a dilemma now. She is still very weak and has not overcome the hassle yet. Is there any chance of regrowing cancer? Is that what the doctor suspected and asked for a checkup every year?
Even after complete treatment of cancer there is remote chance of recurrence or cancer coming back . This is the reason that patient has to be on regular check up with oncologist to detect any recurrence early.

Hello, I'm a 22 year old recently visited a breast clinic in Bhopal. It's almost a month now I am having breast pain, swelling, and my left nipple was inverted more than usual. After the ultrasound I was just given a leaflet about fibroadenoma and she didn't explain. My left nipple has become much more inverted and sunken in and it takes a long time to emerge. Is this something that happens with cancer? I've been worried for months now that this could be cancer even though my doctor didn't seem concerned that it was. Because I am quite young and have no such family history of cancer maybe she overlooked the situation.
Swelling or lump in breast, inverted nipple, pain in breast and lumps in axilla should always be checked thoroughly. These are very common signs which can be seen in Fibroadenoma and also early stage breast cancers. Regular Mammography and biopsy is very important to assess the exact nature of disease. So we would suggest you to undergo a biopsy and visit oncologist to know the exact nature of swelling and it's treatment plan.

In December I had a ct scan for stomach as well as an exrsy for chest ..January got an exray for suspected broken arm . This month February I want to have a mammogram. Is it safe after all the radiation
Female | 72
It seems to be significant what the radiation level of each image test should be. The level of radiation from the tests you have been given is most likely safe, but don't expose yourself more than is necessary. It is advisable to see a specialist like a radiologist or oncologist if you have any worries and to take the best action.

Male | 21
Based on the information you have provided, it seems that the patient has a pontine glioma, which is a type of brain tumor that is located in the pons region of the brainstem. The symptoms you have listed, such as impaired vision and mobility, dysarthia, dysphagia, and breathing difficulties, can be caused by the presence of a brain tumor in the pons region. It is important for the patient to receive appropriate medical care and treatment for their condition. This may involve a combination of surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy, depending on the specific characteristics of the tumor and the patient's overall health. It is important for you to follow treatment plan as recommended by your neurosurgeon and to continue to monitor symptoms closely.
