Swollen lymph nodes that seem to be "spreading everywhere" could indicate an infection, a response to a foreign substance, or even cancer, but it's crucial to get a diagnosis from a doctor. While some cases of swollen lymph nodes may resolve on their own, and some can be treated with medications, surgery is not always the first or only treatment option. If you're concerned about your swollen lymph nodes, it's important to consult with a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment

What are the different cancer treatment options available and how effective is each one? I'm curious if there are alternatives to chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and surgery that might work better or have fewer side effects

Cancer treatment options include surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy, hormone therapy, stem cell transplant, and more. Each treatment's effectiveness varies depending on the cancer type, stage, and individual patient factors. While chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery remain common, newer approaches like immunotherapy and targeted therapy are showing promise with potentially fewer side effects for some patients.
