View allIs a single swollen and painful lymph node something to worry about could it be a sign of cancer? And if it is, can they just remove that one lymph node with surgery or do they have to take out more?
Single swollen lymph nodes often resolve with infection. If persistent, hard, or growing, FNAC or biopsy may be required. If cancerous, surgery may need to remove more than just one node.

My grandmother was just diagnosed with breast cancer and I'm really worried. Can you explain the treatment options for someone her age? If she needs surgery, how urgent is it and what's the typical timeline for that?

Treatment for breast cancer in older women is individualized and depends on several factors, including the stage and type of cancer, her overall health, and her preferences. Common treatment options include surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, hormone therapy, and targeted therapies.
