Patient's question:
Please ask the expert: My mother is 67 years old this year. She recently had a sudden lower back pain and was unable to get up. Later, a CT scan revealed a herniated disc in her lower back. After traction and other treatments, there was some improvement. Due to abdominal pain, an ultrasound examination showed a 130mmx90mm mass on the posterior wall of the uterus, accompanied by swollen inguinal lymph nodes and a relatively hard subcutaneous lump from the upper thigh to the knee on the left side, without obvious redness or swelling. There is also swelling in the left foot. After intravenous fluid and anti-inflammatory treatment, as well as the use of magnesium sulfate hot compresses, the lump on the thigh has significantly reduced in size. Please ask the expert, is this condition a malignant tumor of the uterus? How should it be treated, cared for, and what should be the diet?Doctor's answer:
The first step is to confirm the type of illness, whether it is a malignant tumor. The most critical aspect is pathological evidence. Currently, it is recommended to undergo a lump puncture biopsy at a local tumor hospital or a Class III-A hospital. After the disease is diagnosed, a treatment plan will be formulated based on the type, location, size, stage of the tumor, as well as the patient's overall condition. If you need assistance, you are welcome to call the special invited tumor expert consultation hotline above or fax the patient's detailed medical records. After the experts from various departments (internal medicine, surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, traditional Chinese medicine, etc.) conduct a detailed consultation, they will formulate a scientific and reasonable diagnosis and treatment plan, as well as precautions, free of charge based on the patient's specific situation.
