I'm really worried because I've got this lump in my left armpit, and it's almost as big as half a table tennis ball. It's really painful, with sharp stabbing sensations. Plus, my left breast hurts a lot too, from the nipple to somewhere inside, with sharp electrical pains and then other times, it's a continuous dull ache that sticks around for hours. Which type of doctor should I see for this? And do you have any idea what kind of tests I might need?

View allWhat are the different cancer treatment options available and how effective is each one? I'm curious if there are alternatives to chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and surgery that might work better or have fewer side effects
Cancer treatment options include surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy, hormone therapy, stem cell transplant, and more. Each treatment's effectiveness varies depending on the cancer type, stage, and individual patient factors. While chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery remain common, newer approaches like immunotherapy and targeted therapy are showing promise with potentially fewer side effects for some patients.

I'm really worried because my wife has been getting this pain in her breast, more often on the left side. What kind of specialist should we see about this?
I'm sorry to hear about your wife's discomfort. It's best to consult a **breast specialist or a general surgeon** to evaluate the pain. They can assess her symptoms, conduct necessary tests, and guide her further.

I'm a bit worried about my lymph nodes. About five months ago, a CT scan showed my lymph node was 16mm, and I had another scan today showing it's down to 8mm. I'm seeing Dr. Ujjwal Parikh at Sir Ganga Ram Hospital, and I'm feeling better, but I'd love to get some extra advice to be sure everything's okay. What do you think about these changes, and should I be concerned about anything?
continue same medication
