It's important to seek expert care at renowned institutions like Tata Memorial Hospital in Mumbai, known for its outstanding oncologists and surgical teams. Symptoms can vary but often include unexplained weight loss, fatigue, or unusual changes in health. Causes can range from genetic factors to environmental influences. I recommend scheduling a consultation with a oncologist there. They will assess your specific situation and outline personalized treatment options.

Thymoma a1 in hiv positive person
Male | 48
Thymoma is a rare tumor in the thymus gland and can sometimes be seen in individuals with compromised immune systems, like those living with HIV. Common signs include difficulty breathing, chest pain, and fatigue. While the exact cause of thymoma isn't fully understood, a weakened immune response can play a role. It's essential to maintain regular check-ups with your oncologist, as they can tailor treatment to your needs, including monitoring, surgery, or other therapies. Always reach out to your doctor for any new symptoms or concerns.

My friend is going through cancer treatment. But the thing is, although her side-effects are decreasing there is no sign of cancer going away. Can you tell me if immunotherapy can help her? She is battling Prostate cancer and it's been 3 months now since she was diagnosed.
I think you have mistaken with the name of the cancer. A female does not have a prostate, so no prostate cancer. Consult the treating oncologists, who will guide you and help you choose the best treatment available. Hope our answer helps you.

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.

I have pain in my throat।।I m a smoker do I have throat cancer
Male | 30
Persistent throat pain can have many causes.. and while smoking is a known risk factor for throat cancer, it doesn't necessarily mean you have cancer if you experience throat pain. There are many other possible reasons for throat discomfort, like infections, allergies, acid reflux, or even smoking-related issues like irritation and inflammation. If you're very concerned you can visit for a checkup at your nearest cancer hospital.

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.

Namaste, My father lives in Ahmedabad, Gujarat and is in terminal stage of cancer. It started as oral cancer which was removed surgically but unfortunately has metastasized to his lungs and now his liver. He took 6 rounds of chemotherapy, but it spread anyway. He is at end of life now and we are desperately looking for Ayurveda treatment or options that can ease this situation.
Male | 65
Metastasis means the cancer has spread to other body areas. The terminal stage signals the disease's progression. Pain, weakness, and no appetite are symptoms. Ayurveda uses herbs and healthy practices to ease discomfort and lift life quality. But consult an expert to plan the ideal ayurvedic treatment approach for your dad's specific case.
