I'm really worried about my wife. She's 23 and has been dealing with fibroadenoma for about 4 years now. There's one in her right breast that's around 3 cm, and it's causing her a lot of fear. We're really hoping to find a way to treat it without surgery. Any advice?

I found out I have oral cancer and I'm really confused about whether surgery or chemotherapy would be the better option for me. Can you help me understand which treatment might work best in my case?

Chemotherapy is often used after surgery to kill any cancer cells that remain. Chemotherapy may increase the effectiveness of radiation therapy, so the two treatments are often combined. If the cancer spreads to other parts of the body, chemotherapy can help control it.
