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?

Just had surgery for stage 1 rectal cancer (T2 N0 Mx) and I'm anxious about it coming back what's my risk and how often should I get checked? My rectal cancer was stage 1 T2 N0 Mx surgery went well but I keep worrying it'll return. What's the usual follow-up plan to catch recurrence early? Had surgery for early-stage rectal cancer (T2 N0 Mx) last month should I be super worried about recurrence or are the odds in my favor? Stage 1 T2 N0 Mx rectal cancer removed last month what's the chance it comes back and are there lifestyle changes to lower the risk?

This condition may require clinical evaluation to determine the exact cause and treatment. Some cases can be managed conservatively, while others may need surgical intervention depending on size, symptoms, and severity. Regular follow-up is important to monitor progress.

I'm really worried about my 70-year-old mom. She's been on levatin ib tablets for her thyroid cancer treatment and recently we've noticed this white mucous discharge. It's been going on for about two weeks now, but there's no foul odor. She just had a PET scan two days ago and it didn't show anything unusual. She's also bedridden and uses diapers. Could this discharge indicate an infection or something more serious? Wouldn't the PET scan have picked up on anything serious if there was something wrong?

The mucous white discharge in your 70-year-old mother, who is bedridden and undergoing thyroid cancer treatment with Levatin IB, could be indicative of a urinary tract infection (UTI), especially given her age, immobility, and use of diapers; although the PET scan didn't reveal any abnormalities, UTIs may not always show up on PET scans; it's essential to consult her doctor or oncologist about this new symptom, as they may prescribe antibiotics or order additional tests, such as a urine culture, to determine the cause and appropriate treatment.

I'm really worried about my fibroadenoma in my left breast. It's been there for around three years now, and I've been taking Ayurvedic medicine for the last 7 months, but the size seems to be about 32.75cm. Is this normal? Should I be doing something else for treatment or getting it checked out further? It's really stressing me out, and I'd appreciate any advice on what to do next.
