I'm really concerned about a tumor in my breast that's about 1.5 inches from the top. It feels round, but the inside seems flat. It's been painful twice a week, and I feel the same pain on my back where the tumor is located. I've been seeing a homeopathic doctor who said it would improve in six months, but it seems to be getting worse and I haven't done any medical tests yet. What should I do?

My dad has stage 2 colorectal cancer with blood loss and also had a heart attack recently. He's been diagnosed with CAD TVD and has around 90% blockage doctors suggested bypass surgery but can't do it because of the blood loss from cancer. What's the best way to handle the cancer surgery in this situation?

Taking up for colon surgery with CAD TVD would be very risky. Depending on the location of tumour, management can be decided. If it is rectal cancer, then you can give neoadjuvant radiation which will control the bleeding, then plan for cardiac surgery followed by LAR surgery for rectal cancer. However if it is colon cancer, then it is difficult. You can consult any interventional radiologist to see if any Embolisation procedure can be planned for controlling the bleeding. Next Steps Proceed to any higher centre as this case needs multidisciplinary approach
