Oral Cancer Treatment in India

oral cancer treatment in india

Oral cancer or might cancer is a type of head and neck cancer. This disease can affect your lips, checks, tongue and throat. Mouth cancer is more common in people over forty. Most of the cases are related to tobacco and alcohol.

Mouth cancer can be detected in its early stages by your dentist during a thorough mouth examination.

If the cancer has not spread to the other parts of the body, a complete cure may be possible using a combination of chemotherapy, radiotherapy and surgery. If the cancer has spread to other parts then the cure is unlikely but it can be slowed down and help relieve symptoms by using surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy.

Oral Cancer Treatments:

Surgery: The aim of surgical treatment is to remove any affected tissue while minimizing the damage to the rest of the mouth.

Photodynamic Therapy: when the cancer is in its very early stages, it is very likely to remove any tumours using a type of laser surgery known as photodynamic therapy. PDT involves taking a medicine that makes your tissue sensitive to the effects of light. Then a laser is used to remove the tumour.

Radiotherapy: It uses doses of radiation to kill cancerous cells. The cancer can individually be removed using radiotherapy but it is usually used after surgery to prevent the cancer from reoccurring. Radiotherapy can also affect healthy tissue. Side effects can be red skin, dry mouth, tiredness, stiff jaw, bad breath. Side effects can further be monitored and treated.

Chemotherapy: Chemotherapy is sometimes used with radiotherapy when the cancer is widespread. Chemotherapy involves the use of powerful cancer killing medicines which damaged the DNA of the cancerous cells and this interrupting their ability to reproduce. Medicines may also damage some healthy tissue. Side effects include fatigue, mouth ulcers, sore mouth, feeling sick, hair loss, tiredness. Chemotherapy also weakens your immune system and this making you more vulnerable to infections.

Biological Therapy: these treatments are made from naturally occurring body substances. A biological therapy called cetuximab is used for some mouth and orpharnyngeal cancers. It may also be used alongside radiotherapy for advanced squamous mouth.

      I came to see the doctor in WHE and he introduced me to the stem cell treatment. They took the stem cells from my bone marrow and fat and he injected them and it has been fabulous. I don’t have the aches and pains that I used to suffer from on a constant day to day basis. I would highly recommend it to anybody who’s looking for a remedy to their back pain and their aching joints.

      WHE replaced both my hips and the result is nothing short of miraculous. I was back home after surgery in 2 days. Other than a small 3 inch scar, you would never know I had hip surgery.

The prescribed physical therapy returned me to full mobility within just a few weeks and allowed me to return to all of my pre-surgery sports and activities.

      I traveled to WHE who performed a minimally invasive mitral valve repair, making a two-inch incision through my right side and successfully fixing the leak. I was walking on my own the next day and left the hospital just two days later. It was such a positive experience. Everyone from the compassionate nurses and technicians who cared for me, to the welcoming environment.
