My wife is 23 and has been suffering from fibroadenoma for 4 years. There's a 3 cm lump in her right breast and she's really scared. Are there any treatment options without surgery? She's very worried about going under the knife.

I've noticed something concerning lately there's a lump under my arm, and it's been there for a couple of months now. It seems to come and go, and sometimes it gets bigger before shrinking again after a few days. It's pretty soft to touch, but now I'm starting to feel something similar in the other armpit too. Should I be worried about this? What could it possibly be?

Observe the Lumps: If they continue to grow, cause pain, or do not go away, you should consult a doctor for a proper diagnosis. Medical Evaluation: A healthcare professional may want to examine the lumps physically, and potentially order an ultrasound or biopsy to rule out other conditions, particularly if you're concerned about the lumps appearing in both armpits. Watch for Changes: If the lumps become painful, larger, or change in appearance (color, warmth, etc.), it's important to seek medical attention quickly.

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?
