I would suggest that you consult medical expert in the field of breast health or oncology for further diagnostics. There may be a swollen lymph node, an infection or benign growth in your left armpit and these all should not have malignancy. Don’t wait and visit your doctor immediately.

My sister-in-law is 38 years old, fighting for her life, due to breast cancer. The stage of cancer is not yet determined as the doctors are waiting for a Biopsy report and PET scan. But initial examination reveals it is in stage 4. She is admitted to Fortis hospital, Amritsar, and getting treated for the chest fluid and blood count increase while waiting for lab reports. We are planning to start her treatment in Bangalore and we are confused about which hospital could help my sister-in-law fight this cancer successfully.

Male | 69

Prostate cancer occurs when abnormal cells multiply in the prostate gland, leading to complications. Common symptoms include difficulty urinating, blood in the urine, and pain in the back or hips. Ayurveda, an ancient Indian medical practice, suggests herbal remedies and lifestyle changes to ease symptoms. However, modern treatments like surgery or radiation therapy are more commonly used to treat prostate cancer effectively.

My brother in law is diagnosed liver cancer by the Doctors in Cuttack, Odisha. He is relatively poor with almost no resources to support the treatment. With my limited income of around Rs 8 lakhs per year, I need to support him. The Regional Research center named " Acharya Harihar Cancer Research center" at Cuttack seems having no modern technology to treat the same ( Please correct me, if I am wrong). Request you to guide me which hospital can be the best choice. I can spend maximum upto 3-4 laks from my savings. Thanks in advance for the help. he needs immediate treatment.
