Hello doctor, My question is- Is cancer genetic? How much percentage of it is hereditary? Regards Manidipa Datta

My 68 year old mother has adenocarcinoma of lungs stage 3.. She had no symptoms.. She successfully completed 6 rounds chemo and 30 sessions of radiation.. She was fine, laughing and eating(no nausea even).. But after one week completing the treatment she's suddenly only sleeping whole day, not talking, not willing to eat and feeling nausea all d time.. Why is this happening after the treatment is over? Is this normal? Can this be cured? Please help 🙏

My friend's grandmother is 80 years old and is suspected with cancer. It is already spread from throat to anus. Will a biopsy at this stage increase the spread? A quick response is expected. Thanks in advance

There is a tightness and uncomfort in the left breast, while pressing or touching it's paining all the time.

I am obese. From 12th April I experienced a loss of appetite and from then on, I am losing weight. I just found I am losing 2-3 kgs per week. Although my appetite has inproved marginally, it is not what it was before.  From 14th April onwards I mostly ate fruit and curd on days and limiting dinner quantityas well. I know losing this much weight is not normalno matter how much I diet, given the fact that I am mostly sedentary otherwise.

Hi Doctor, I have recently noticed 6-7 tiny gland like lumps under the skin. not noticeable from outside. when pressed feels like a gland . some are soft , some are hard like glands . some are movable and some are not. I have one on my hand ( biceps area ) , one in thigh , and 4-5 on both sides of waist area .. these are not painful  . I do not have any discomfort with these and noticed very recently so probably I got these lumps suddenly. Any help is much appreciated
