Has Anyone Here Had Tumors Burned Out Of Their Lungs Before With A Laser

Scratching a mole off WILL CAUSE CANCER ?

Nope, scratching a mole won't cause cancer. In fact the mole may not even be cancerous.

It grew back because it is like any other part of your skin... it grows and heals when it is disturbed.

Here is how you tell if a mole might be cancerous: ABCD.
A -- Asymmetry -- is your mole weirdly shaped?
B -- Borders -- does it have irregular edges?
C -- Color -- is it an unusual color?
D -- Diameter -- is it bigger than a pencil eraser?

If yes go to your doctor and ask them to take a biopsy since it could be a melanoma. But other than that you are just fine.

Is smoking paper dangerous?

hello dear i would like to answer your question, i want to say that smoking and smIt's yes and no. Yes, it's bad because smoking paper is just absolutely ridiculous. No, because since you didn't inhale (I'm trusting that you really didn't) there's no smoke entering the lungs. However, if the paper roll you're smoking is short then you can scar your trachea from the heat of the paper roll. Also, since paper is thicker than cigarette paper and has nothing inside to fill it completely like a cigar/cigarette, there's plenty of gaps inside the paper roll for oxygen to get through and keep the burning end of the paper roll nice and hot so you might've done some heat scarring to your trachea but not too much to worry about it. Just go read a book and leave the paper alone.

A question about cancerous moles?

Do not listen to the guy who answered before me. In the early stages of most cancers you will not have any symptoms. By the time you start to develop symptoms the cancer has usually become pretty advanced.

Moles CAN turn cancerous. If your mole has changed shape, color, or size it needs to be looked at by a doctor.

The information below is the Melanoma Warning Sings found on Skin Cancer Net http://www.skincarephysicians.com/skinca...

"1. Asymmetry. If you could fold the lesion in two, the two halves would not match.

2. Border. Melanomas often have uneven or blurred borders.
3. Color. Melanoma typically is not one solid color; rather it contains mixed shades of tan, brown, and black. It can also show traces of red, blue or white.
4. Diameter. While melanomas are usually greater than 6 millimeters (about the size of a pencil eraser) when diagnosed, they can be smaller. If you notice a mole different from others, or which changes, itches, or bleeds even if it is smaller than 6 millimeters, you should see a dermatologist.

5. Evolving. A mole or skin lesion that looks different from the rest or is changing in size, shape or color.


Other warning signs of melanoma include:

* Change in the appearance of a mole, such as the spreading of the pigment from the border of the mole into the surrounding skin

* A mole that looks scaly, oozes, or bleeds

* Itching, tenderness, or pain in a mole or lesion

* Brown or black streak that appears underneath a nail or around the nail

* Bruise on the foot that does not heal"

Pictures of the four types of Melanoma can be found here: http://www.skincarephysicians.com/skinca...


The most important advice I can give you is listen to your subconscious. If something keeps bothering your mind about that mole, get it checked out. Even if you think it is nothing. It is always better to be safe than sorry.

Why do cancer cells cause damange to human system?

Basically, most of the answers are here, but I'll try to simplify them, as well as add one that has been overlooked:

Cancer cells are usually harmless in and of themselves. However, if a tumor becomes large enough, it can restrict functions of your organs, simply by filling them up too much (colon, lung cancer), or by putting physical pressure on other organs like your heart.

Cancer cells create blood vessels around themselves, so they can feed better on your nutrients. Effectively, this causes malnourishment of the other cells in your body. This effect is generally mild until late stages of metastatic cancer.

This has not been mentioned yet, but primary cancer tumors usually excrete an anti-growth hormone that restricts the growth of all cells in your body, including other cancer cells. Since the cancer cells essentially divide faster than your healthy cells, the cancer is putting itself at a relative advantage by doing this.

This also has not been mentioned-- oftentimes, your body attempts to mount an immune response to the cancer cells. In response to this, cancer oftentimes acquires a trait that allows it to attack your immune system's B and T cells. This creates an immune deficiency state, similar but not as extreme as seen in AIDS patients, which allows for a secondary infection to attack the body.

Thanks for the great question. Hopefully I weeded out some of the unnecessary information in there.



edit- Ignore the people that say it is a viral disease or that it uses free radicals to cause damage. Not true at all.

Anybody knows Dr. Tullio Simoncini ?, Oncologist in Rome, Italy?

My brother was recently biopsied with a nasopharengeal cancer stage II-b. This is a dreaded news for the family. In desperation for a cure I googled it and found this site about Dr. Tullio Simoncini. His approach and his remedy (or cure) seemed too good to be true. Any witness or testimony out there? We live in the Philippines, but Italy is not that far if the cure really works.
