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.

I'm really worried and need some guidance. I've been dealing with pain and a burning sensation in my right nipple for about 45 days and mild pain in my right armpit for a few days. I've taken a lot of medicine, but nothing seems to help. I had a mammogram and an ultrasound done; the mammogram was all clear, but the ultrasound showed a well-defined oval hypoechoic lesion measuring 63 mm in the 34 clock position of my right breast. It also noted some bilateral axillary lymph nodes with preserved fatty hila that they said were insignificant. I also had my right ovary removed because of a dermoid cyst, and my left ovary is normal in size but shows multiple peripherally arranged follicles, and they said it appears polycystic. I'm really anxiouscould this possibly be cancer?
Based on your symptoms and test results, it's unlikely to be breast cancer, given the clear mammogram and ultrasound findings describing a small, well-defined hypoechoic lesion, which may be a benign cyst or fibroadenoma; however, the persistent nipple pain and burning warrant further evaluation by a breast specialist or a multidisciplinary team to rule out other conditions like ductal ectasia, periductal mastitis, or hormonal imbalances, which may be related to your history of ovarian issues, including the removed dermoid cyst and polycystic-appearing left ovary.

I'm a 30-year-old woman with a neck lump that's been there for a while. The ENT at RML Hospital did tests thyroid profile and anti-TPO were normal, but the ultrasound showed a 26x38 mm echogenic nodule in the right lobe. The FNAC came back as Atypical/Suspicious Follicular Neoplasm, Bethesda Grade IV. The doctor recommended surgery, but I really want to avoid it if possible since I'm the only earner in my family and cost is a big concern. What are my options? Should I get a second opinion at Rajiv Gandhi Cancer Hospital?
Surgery is inevitable next step in the evaluation. You may be suffering from thyroid cancer. But considering your age and description, it may be in initial stage in present and may be curable
