Tongue and neck cancer
My father has tongue and neck cancer at 4th stage. I have attached his report. Also, some scan reports I could not attach. I can send it via whatsapp or mail. Ahmedabad doctors said there are very less chances to be cured. They have not suggested any treatment (radio therapy/chemo/operation). My father is living on liquid only. No food. Also blood is coming out from his mouth when he is having any liquid. He cannot speak anything. To the cancer specialists, please request to provide me the response soon. Which hospital/doctor should I go for my father's cancer treatment? Where can he get the best treatment in INDIA?

There are a number of treatments available for this type of cancer which depends on the stage of the cancer ....
At this stage your father can undergo targeted drug therapy.... Targeted drug therapy has been used to attack the cancer cells on a molecular level. This treatment method is not administered alone and is usually combined with radiotherapy and chemotherapy to form effective for the treatment of tongue cancer.....
