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?

View allMy dad has stage 2 colorectal cancer with blood loss and also had a heart attack recently. He's been diagnosed with CAD TVD and has around 90% blockage doctors suggested bypass surgery but can't do it because of the blood loss from cancer. What's the best way to handle the cancer surgery in this situation?
Taking up for colon surgery with CAD TVD would be very risky. Depending on the location of tumour, management can be decided. If it is rectal cancer, then you can give neoadjuvant radiation which will control the bleeding, then plan for cardiac surgery followed by LAR surgery for rectal cancer. However if it is colon cancer, then it is difficult. You can consult any interventional radiologist to see if any Embolisation procedure can be planned for controlling the bleeding. Next Steps Proceed to any higher centre as this case needs multidisciplinary approach

My uncle had surgery for oral cancer a few months ago and completed radiation therapy over a month back. He's been weak but recovering well, but recently he's noticed blood in his saliva or mucus once or twice a day. The radiation specialist and oncologist said it's normal, but I'm still a bit concerned. Is bleeding like this really a common side effect after radiation or should we be more worried about it?

I've had this lump in my armpit since last October. It's medium-sized, hard, and painless. It's not red, and it doesn't seem like it's movable. I'm a bit worried about what it could be. Should I be concerned? What might be causing it?
It sounds like you have a medium-sized, hard, and painless lump in your armpit that has been present for quite some time. While it's reassuring that it isn't red or painful, it's important to get it checked by a healthcare professional to rule out any underlying conditions and ensure proper care.
