Question

I'm really worried because my mom's been having bad low back pain for the past 10 days, and when the doctor did a CT scan, they mentioned her lungs are infected. They even said it could be lung cancer. Can you help me understand if it's really lung cancer or not? It's all so overwhelming, and I'm not sure what to think or do.

Question

I'm a 21-year-old female and I've been dealing with right axillary lymphadenopathy along with central, lateral, and pectoral lymphadenopathy for about 3 years now. I was diagnosed with a 49mm fibroadenoma in the upper quadrant of my right breast through USG and FNAC around the same time. I'm really worried because these lymph nodes have been persistent and haven't shrunk, despite stopping the removal of axillary hair for months. There's no infection in my arms or chest, no nipple discharge, but sometimes I do feel a prickly sensation in my breast. Should I be concerned about the lymph nodes not reducing in size? What could be causing this?

Question

I have several lesions in both my breasts, and they seem to be getting worse each year. Is there any medication that can help with this? I've already had surgery to remove a lesion that was about 3 to 4 cm big. I also did an FNAC needle test, and it showed I have fibroadenoma. Can you give me some advice on what to do next?

Question

My wife has a single breast fibroadenoma, and we've tried homeopathic treatment, but it hasn't gone away. I'm really stressed out about it. Is there any way to treat this without surgery?
