Cancer Care and Treatment

I am a 35 year old male, last month my father died of colorectal cancer. The cancer was diagnosed too late and he barely lived a month after being diagnosed. I have heard that cancer is hereditary and runs in family. I wanted to know if colorectal cancer can be prevented? What measures should I take to prevent it?

I am a 47 year old male, I recently came across an article on colon cancer and its symptoms. Since then I am worried that I might be suffering from it as I can see most of the symptoms mentioned in it in myself. Is there any home test to diagnose it? What type of doctor specializes in such cases?

Hi I am 27 year old female, I had small swellings on my back, they were soft, doctors said they are fat deposits and are called lipoma. I do not want to any surgical treatment for the same and hence I have started taking Homeopathy. There are no new swelling and I feel the previous ones are reducing in size. I would want to know what are the other symptoms of Lipoma which I may not be aware of?

My mother was diagnosed with breast cancer in November2017. According to histopathology report it is TNBC and doctor has not removed 1.8*3cm of tumour since it was Attached to blood vessel. After surgery she has undergone 4 cycles of chemo since December 2017 followed by 12 cycles of paclitaxel which was ended in June 2017. From April 2017, the area where surgery was done started swelling. Doctors were saying it happens. It is normal. But after the paclitaxel she has undergone a PET scan again which showed that she has a tumour of size 10*12cm. After that she has undergone 3 cycles of different chemo(some carbo chemo) to check if tumour shrinks. But it didn't shrink to doctor's expectation. He suggested another PET scan to check if the tumour is away from blood vessels. If so it can be operated and removed. I am worried. I have seen many people who were cured from breast cancer(at least for few years). Why my mother is suffering this much. Is there any solution for this type of case?
