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 was just diagnosed with esophageal cancer at Stage IIB and we're really confused about the best treatment options. Should we go for surgery right away or consider chemo and radiotherapy first? The reports show it's progressed a bit and we're not sure what approach would work best for his case. Could you help us understand what treatments might be most effective? We're especially worried about whether surgery alone would be enough or if combining treatments would give better results. The diagnosis has us pretty overwhelmed and we'd really appreciate some clarity on the possible next steps.

I had a breast MRI and biopsy that showed stage 2 cancer, but the PET scan came back clear does this mean the cancer hasn't spread? I'm considering a full mastectomy but worried about the risks and long-term impact. What would be the safest treatment option to completely cure this with minimal life risk?
Stage 2 breast cancer with clear PET suggests no distant spread; full mastectomy with lymph node check plus chemo/radiation based on reports offers best chance of cure.

my mom has cancer in the GI junction and already had chemotherapy now surgery is recommended but the treatment cost is too high for us can you suggest a good hospital that provides affordable care with proper facilities
For GI junction cancer surgery in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar (Nagpur), consider exploring government hospitals like the Government Medical College and Hospital (GMCH) or the Maharashtra Cancer Care Centre for potentially lower-cost options while maintaining quality care. These facilities may offer subsidized treatment plans and have specialized teams for GI cancer surgery. You can also explore private hospitals like Sahyadri Hospital in Pune (though outside of Nagpur) which may offer more affordable options compared to some other private hospitals
