I had surgery in Bangladesh 2 years ago for this issue but now it's come back in a different spot. The doctor there is recommending another surgery but I'm looking for a specialist in India who really understands this condition and can treat it properly so it doesn't keep recurring. Can you suggest someone experienced with this?

This condition may require clinical evaluation to determine the exact cause and treatment. Some cases can be managed conservatively, while others may need surgical intervention depending on size, symptoms, and severity. Regular follow-up is important to monitor progress.

my mother has stage 3A breast cancer and is getting treatment at SGPGIMS but the doctors aren't clear about how many chemo cycles she'll need they mentioned maybe 10 cycles but does that mean 5 before surgery and 5 after or something else also they said it could go beyond 10 if her body responds well is there no standard number of cycles for different cancer stages and which hospital would be best for breast cancer treatment

A detailed evaluation will help decide the best course of action.

My wife is 29 and found some lumps, so her doctor recommended an ultrasound which showed multiple cysts with the largest being 17mm. The FNAC came back as benign fibroadenoma. We're unsure whether to go for surgery to remove it or just keep monitoring it what would you suggest is the best approach?

The results indicate multiple breast cysts and a fibroadenoma, both benign conditions. Fibroadenomas are common, non-cancerous breast lumps, and the FNAC (Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology) confirming a benign fibroadenoma suggests this lump is not cancerous. The cysts, especially a 17mm cyst, are also benign and don't typically require treatment.
