Difficult to answer this question without examination and history, though broadly speaking sinister cause like cancer is rare in such young age, benign skin problems are more common. However it'll be advisable to visit a surgeon for evaluation..

Nipple dryness maybe related to some skin problem. Please Consult the dermatologist. Breast cancer sometimes causes nipple retraction or nipple discharge

Hi my husband was diagnosed with secondary lung cancer. Doctors asked for immunotherapy. Should we consult for a second opinion or is it fine to go with immunotherapy?

Please consult Medical Oncologist so that he can advice you properly with a protocol. In recent times immunotherapy works best for lung cancer.

Hello sir, I was diagnosed with an eye tumour last year and operated it. After 7 months of surgery, yesterday again I was diagnosed with a tumor in my neck. I am very much worried now. Why this is happening with me. Is there any chance to be cancer now?
Male | 59
Eye tumor is a very vague term. Oncologist will have to know exact diagnosis, current disease staging should be done by a radiological imaging like CT scan or PET-CT scan. A repeat biopsy can be done to confirm the diagnosis.

Hello, I had a doubt, can continuous use of Inhalers and Asthma drugs cause lung cancer?
As per my understanding you are having asthma and is regularly using asthma drugs like inhaler etc, and wants to know whether it will cause lungs cancer. Several studies have shown that chronic inflammation in the lungs caused due to asthma may be a factor in causing lung cancer. That means when asthma, is combined with other causes, may increase the risk of lung cancer. Consult a pulmonologist, who on evaluating the patient will help you to identify the risk factor in your case. Hope our answer helps you.

Hello, I have a few questions as follows: 1. Which is the best treatment for Lymphoma cancer with stage 2? 2. Can Immunotherapy alone can cure my cancer completely? 3. What will be the side effects of Immunotherapy? 4. How do the blood tests help in monitoring the cancer progress? 5. Which treatment has a speedy recovery while comparing immunotherapy Vs chemotherapy or radiotherapy?
As per my understanding you want to know about the best therapy for lymphoma stage 2. Treatment and Prognosis of a cancer depends on many factors, which include the type of cancer, its stage and the age and general condition of the individual. The treatment for stage 2 lymphoma depends on the type of lymphoma, medical history of patient, and others. Line of treatment is mainly chemotherapy, radiotherapy, immunotherapy and stem cell therapy. Any modality of treatment depends upon the condition of patient, his age, type and stage of cancer. Treatment is stage wise. Immunotherapy is newer treatment and side effects may be mild to severe like skin reactions, flu-like symptoms, body ache, diarrhea, headaches etc. Regarding blood test ,most of the investigations are on similar pattern which are use to diagnose the disease with few variations. But choice of treatment depends on the clinician's decision and as per the response of patient. Consult an oncologist - Best Oncologist In India. Hope our answer helps 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.

My name is Pratima. Just a few days back my grandmother was diagnosed with colon cancer treatment (1st stage). She is 75 now. As she is quite aged, is there any chance of growing again? Or is there any life risk even post operation? As she is quite aged we are really worried. Please help.
Surgery is to be done to get the disease out of body and prevent it's spread elsewhere in body. There is always a chance of spread of disease in Colon cancer, so regular follow ups with oncologist are very important to check any spread. Age factor does matter in case of recovery post surgery. General condition of the body matters alot for proper recovery post surgery.

Hello, I'm 48 yrs old male, diagnosed with AML in August 2020, underwent intense chemo. Achieved remission after cycle1. After 4 cycles of chemo in april 2021, I was advised to take preventive chemo thats milder (Azacitidine for 12 cycles). This chemo started in May 2021 until Nov 2022. Now I have achieved complete remission & stopped all treatment. what are my chances here, is there a likelihood of relapse, if yes should I take any preventive steps like ayurveda etc. I dont have prior history of smoking or drinking, have maintained healthy diet all along
Male | 48
Remission from treatment is wonderful news. Your relapse chances vary but maintaining a healthy lifestyle remains vital. AML relapse risk exists, as it's a complex cancer. Ayurvedic therapies support wellbeing, but regular medical follow-ups catch relapses early. Keep doing what you're doing, and stay connected with your care team.

Metastatic squamous cell carcinoma confirmed by doctor. Pembrolizumab monotherapy suggested. What is cost of this therapy per session and how many therapy required. Prognosis ?
Male | 45
Metastatic squamous cell carcinoma - that's the type of cancer you have. It means cancer has spread. Doctors suggest Pembrolizumab treatment. This therapy costs thousands per session. You may need several sessions. The outlook varies from person to person. For some, Pembrolizumab shrinks or stops cancer growth. Others don't respond well. Discuss potential benefits and risks with your oncologist.

Throat cancer related? Mera gale ke cancer ka treatment ho chuka hai cemo aur radiation se 3 months ho chuke hai puchna tha mai kbtk solid food le paungi?
Female | 34
Chemotherapy and radiation therapy can cause difficulty swallowing and mouth sores, making it hard to eat solid foods. Sticking to liquid foods can help you recover slowly, and you can reintroduce solid foods once your throat heals.

can cervical cancer cause b12 deficiency?
Female | 44
No, cervical cancer does not directly cause B12 deficiency. However, some cancer treatments, such as chemotherapy, may affect the absorption of vitamin B12 in the body, leading to a deficiency. It is important to monitor B12 levels in cancer patients undergoing treatment and supplement as necessary to prevent deficiency.
