I'm really worried because my wife has been getting this pain in her breast, more often on the left side. What kind of specialist should we see about this?

I'm sorry to hear about your wife's discomfort. It's best to consult a breast specialist or a general surgeon to evaluate the pain. They can assess her symptoms, conduct necessary tests, and guide her further.

My wife has a single breast fibroadenoma and has tried homeopathic treatment, but it hasn't gone away. I'm really worried are there any non-surgical treatment options that could help?

If homeopathy failed to shrink fibroadenoma, surgical excision may be considered. It’s a minor outpatient procedure with quick recovery.

my mom has cancer in the GI junction and already had chemotherapy now surgery is recommended but the treatment cost is too high for us can you suggest a good hospital that provides affordable care with proper facilities

For GI junction cancer surgery in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar (Nagpur), consider exploring government hospitals like the Government Medical College and Hospital (GMCH) or the Maharashtra Cancer Care Centre for potentially lower-cost options while maintaining quality care. These facilities may offer subsidized treatment plans and have specialized teams for GI cancer surgery. You can also explore private hospitals like Sahyadri Hospital in Pune (though outside of Nagpur) which may offer more affordable options compared to some other private hospitals

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
