Question

My wife was diagnosed with BIRADS 4A fibroadenoma, and the FNAC and ultrasound showed it's non-malignant. We're really hesitant about surgery can homeopathy or ayurveda help treat this condition? Looking for alternatives that might work.

For a confirmed, non-malignant BIRADS 4A fibroadenoma, while surgery is often recommended, there are other options, including watchful waiting and minimally invasive procedures. Homeopathy and Ayurveda can be used to manage symptoms, but they haven't been proven to cure fibroadenomas or replace standard medical treatments

Question

How do cancers start?

Question

I'm really worried because I've got this lump in my left armpit, and it's almost as big as half a table tennis ball. It's really painful, with sharp stabbing sensations. Plus, my left breast hurts a lot too, from the nipple to somewhere inside, with sharp electrical pains and then other times, it's a continuous dull ache that sticks around for hours. Which type of doctor should I see for this? And do you have any idea what kind of tests I might need?
