Hello sir, my dad was diagnosed with bile duct cancer in October. He is currently 65 years old. He refused to treat because of the terrible adverse effects, and he believes he would have died due to the side effects. Is there any other approach to treat him so that he doesn't have to go through the trauma?
Male | 65
Please perform Whole body PETCT to know the actual condition and then you can consult a oncologist so he will guide your father for proper treatment for speedy recovery.

She has other pre existing conditions, high blood Pressure, diabetes, thybroids and lupus. She has now been diagnosed with bone cancer. The hospital doctor says they can't treat the cancer because if her other conditions. She wants to fight this. Is there a realistic chance her cancer can be treated to extend her life.

Ive always had discharge for as long as I can remember and at my 8 week postpartum checkup the doctor checked me but said it wasn’t alarming because it’s not bothering me. I am currently 4 months postpartum and noticed I was getting discharge that had a slight odour and the discharge left rashes between my thighs and it got to the point I couldn’t wear underwear because the discharge would get more and I keep getting rashes. I noticed it getting a little bit better when I stopped wearing underwear the smell was still slightly fishy but not too terrible like before but recently after sexual intercourse I bled a little. Now google says it’s either the C word or some infection. I’m aware I should go doctor right away but I’m just not able to do so , my last two screenings for cervical cancer with my Pap smear came negative it was in 2018 and 2021. What’s the reason I bled?
Female | 27
Postpartum, it is normal to discharge but rashes and odor can prove an infection. Sex-related bleeding is not normal and may indicate a problem. This is why it’s important to go and see a doctor so that they can rule out any serious conditions. Cervical cancer screenings are also significant, but they do not detect all problems. If you are experiencing symptoms, do not waste time before seeing a doctor.

Your uncle has squamous carcinoma. It starts in flat cells. Cancer often makes people weak and hopeless. Support him emotionally and physically. Encourage Ayurveda treatment. Tell him to stay positive. Make sure he eats well and rests enough.

Hello , my mother 52 y/o was diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma . She underwent operation 6 months back for that and received 30 radiation therapies . Due to this , she developed osteradionecrosis . Does ayurveda holds cure to it without surgery ?
Female | 52
Osteoradionecrosis is a serious condition that occurs after radiation therapy, and while Ayurveda offers supportive care to improve overall health, it may not fully cure this condition without surgery. It's essential to consult with a maxillofacial surgeon or an oncologist who can provide the best treatment options based on your mother's specific condition.

I was diagnosed with pancreas cancer after undergoing numerous tests. But my doctor is not telling me anything clearly, he is not answering my queries. which makes me more anxious. Please suggest something to me. I want to go for a second opinion. I live in Patna.

Lifestyle changes are also very important like eating right food, good and enough sleep, stress management, counselling.

But still she needs to be under observation of an oncologist. Further investigations, treatment all depends on her general condition and stage and type of cancer.
