Hi and thanks for the query,

It might be necessary to see a cancerologist. A detailed clinical and paraclinical assessment is required to know whether the cancer or other nearby structures are touched or not. The biopsy at times might miss a diagnosis. Depending on the clinical review and results of specific tests, treatment options will be decided upon., In some cases chemotherapy or radiotherapy might be required. If not appropriately applied early in the treatment course, complications might be observed and this leading to aggravation of the clinical scenario.

Thanks and kind regards.
