My wife has a single breast fibroadenoma, and we've tried homeopathic treatment, but it hasn't gone away. I'm really stressed out about it. Is there any way to treat this without surgery?

Is cryogenic treatment a good option for breast cancer or would surgery be the better choice I'm really worried about making the right decision and want to understand which treatment might work best for my situation

Cryoablation is still experimental; surgery is the standard first-line treatment for most breast cancers.

I've had benign tumors since childhood and doctors said surgery is an option if they cause discomfort. What treatments are available to completely remove them and how much would it cost?

For benign tumors, surgical removal (like lumpectomy for fibroadenomas) or cryotherapy (freezing) are common options. Radiation therapy or radiosurgery can also shrink or eliminate tumors. Cost varies depending on the procedure, location, and severity of the condition, with surgery potentially costing between Rs. 50,000 and Rs. 2 lakhs
