I'm a 21-year-old female and I've been dealing with right axillary lymphadenopathy along with central, lateral, and pectoral lymphadenopathy for about 3 years now. I was diagnosed with a 49mm fibroadenoma in the upper quadrant of my right breast through USG and FNAC around the same time. I'm really worried because these lymph nodes have been persistent and haven't shrunk, despite stopping the removal of axillary hair for months. There's no infection in my arms or chest, no nipple discharge, but sometimes I do feel a prickly sensation in my breast. Should I be concerned about the lymph nodes not reducing in size? What could be causing this?

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.

My uncle has bowel cancer and his doctors said surgery isn't an option because he's not strong enough. He's getting worse every day and I'm really worried how can I send you his test results for a second opinion? What other treatment options might help him?

If surgery not an option, chemo, radiation, or palliative care can help manage bowel cancer; share test reports for second opinion with oncologist.

I had rectal bleeding for a few months before my surgery that was initially thought to be from amoeba. Now I'm stage 1 pN0 pMx and worried could the bleeding have detached tumor cells that entered my bloodstream and spread elsewhere even though I'm early stage?

surgery opinion is advised.
