Cancer Care and Treatment

After mri it is showing ductal ectasia i am attaching reports and doctors of aiims saying go for central quadrantectomy what should I do my mother is not ready for it can you suggest me another way to cure it ?

I am currently being investigated for Polycythemia Vera. I had Hgb of 17.2 and HCT fof 51 back in January. My EPO was at 6.6 and MPN reflex panel was negative for all the known mutations. I stopped smoking and was on proper hydration for 5 months and re-tested my CBC from two labs Lab1- Hgb of 15.4 and HCT of 46.2 RBC 5.17 Lab2- Hgb of 16.7 HCT of 49.5 and RBC 5.59 These Lab results are 48 hours apart from each other. Now, I am confused about which one is true? I do not have any other symptoms, Spleen and Liver normal, no elevation in WBC and PLT. My haematologist thinks this is normal for age (29 Male). Kindly help me to understand what are my chances of Triple Negative Polycythemia Vera?

My father-in-law has had an elevated white blood cell (WBC) count of around 37,000 for the past 4 years. Two years ago, we performed all the relevant tests—bone marrow biopsy (negative), karyotyping (normal), and a comprehensive myeloid panel (negative). Since no mutation was detected at the time, the doctors didn’t prescribe any medication. Recently, we repeated the tests and were advised to perform an MPN panel. The results showed a clinically significant JAK2 Exon 14 variant with sequencing VAF 30.04%, depth 66034X, Tier 1B. Although my father-in-law's general health is stable, he occasionally experiences fatigue. The hematologist has now recommended: - Aspirin Ecosprin 75 mg once daily for 30 days - Hydroxyurea Myelostat 500 mg twice daily for 30 days We’re seeking confirmation whether these medications are appropriate, and specifically want to understand any potential side effects of taking Aspirin daily.

My father is 70 years old and he has no diabetes and bp.healthy and active so far.but he is a smoker. He felt some throat pain and had an extra bump in his tongue recently. The surgeon removed it and sent it for biopsy. The result came as cancer and he said that it spread to his throat fully and asked to take a scan in the cancer hospital which we are planning to do tomorrow. What will be the treatment? This can be cured without surgery? Pls help me to know the next steps to face it.

Exactly a year ago underwent laparoscopic right extended hemicolectomy for carcinoma of the ascending colon and hepatic flexure with mesocolic lymph node involvement. This was followed by 12 cycles of FOLFOX chemotherapy combined with targeted therapy (Bevacizumab). The most recent CT scan in May 2025 showed no residual or recurrent disease, and Despite stable imaging, experiencing abdominal pain, peri-anal pain, and sometime vomit loose motion. Advices for semen culture and medications (Nitrofurantoin). i want to know if abdominal pain and rectum pain can be due to semen infection???

My mother is undergoing chemotherapy treatment for TNBC breast cancer. Total 8 cycles are suggested by doctor and 7 are completed. In her recent cycle, while chemo infusion through IV, she experienced pain and then after that now her left hand swells so much and little bit of pain also there when touching it. What should we do? Can we use Sumag dressing for swelling  as it was suggested by someone.

I am a 22 year old young man. 6 months ago I had a blister on my cheek near my wisdom tooth. Initially it was painful and red and was also a little raised, but after some time the pain and redness disappeared and a white round spot remained which was not healing. I consulted many dentists, all of them advised me to get my wisdom tooth removed. Then I got my wisdom tooth removed 2 months ago but still this white spot has not healed completely. I used to eat paan masala earlier, but as soon as this problem occurred, I stopped eating it. Now I am not used to it. Now I am scared and worried that I might have mouth cancer. Please tell me what this is and whether it can cause mouth cancer.
