I'm really concerned about a tumor in my breast that's about 1.5 inches from the top. It feels round, but the inside seems flat. It's been painful twice a week, and I feel the same pain on my back where the tumor is located. I've been seeing a homeopathic doctor who said it would improve in six months, but it seems to be getting worse and I haven't done any medical tests yet. What should I do?

My father has an advanced stage brain tumor and due to his age, doctors are saying surgery isn't an option and we should just wait. Is there really nothing else we can do or explore for him?

Please provide more details of the CT scan or MRI brain he has undergone. Also, is he having any symptoms like headache, double vision or vomitting
