Suggest Treatment For Stage-4 Tonsil Cancer
My dad has 4th stage tonsil cancer. Has taken 30 radiations and 8 chemo cycles till now. The tumour on his right tonsil has reduced partially. Doctors are saying that operation is not possible. And they are not very sure that further chemo cycles will also help. Please help.

Hello,
This is an advanced stage tumor and thus surgery may not be possible.
You can consult an oncologist and plan for chemo radiation.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
