Is there any treatment for prostate cancer in ayurveda
Oncologist
Answered on 1st Aug '24
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 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 am 64 years now. I was diagnosed with throat cancer. It's been six months since I finished radiotherapy. But I'm still nauseous all of the time and can't eat or swallow anything. The discomfort in my mouth and throat, as well as the ulcers, are excruciating.
Radiation therapy in throat cancer is a very common treatment modality. It is associated with some side effects which reduce after a certain time period. Nausea, difficulty in swallowing, stomatitis and dryness of mouth are common side effects after Radiation therapy. These side effects can be managed through some saliva substitutes for keeping the mouth moist. You can use some lubricating anaesthesia solutions suggested by oncologist to help in reducing pain because of ulceration. Nutrition is the key to general well being of the body, so if difficulty in swallowing you can opt for temporary feeding tube to fulfill the nutritional needs of the body.

The treatment for bladder cancer is a combination of surgery and chemotherapy. Whether chemotherapy precedes or follows surgery is dependent on the stage of the cancer. It is necessary to pay a visit to a urologist or oncologist who is a professional in the treatment of bladder cancer so that he/she can assist you more appropriately.

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.
