I have a tumour like 'gaanth' (in hindi) on the upper wall near the throat in my mouth. I chew tobacco and lime (churna) whole day for the last 40 years. Not guthka but my own preparation of supari, churna and zarda mixed well in plastic. The churna concentration, if increased, repeatedly cause mouth ulcers, which gets alright after reducing churna. This is going on for last 40 years. I am diabetic on insulin, hypertensive on ramipril + amlodipine. This tumour was suddenly developed overnight last week and when I woke up, it was paining. I took 2 tabs. Of ketorol dt and the pain reduced to only 25% within a day. Also I took ordent tabs. (antibiotic with ofloxacin + ornidazole). The antibiotic seems to be doing nothing and there is now no need to take any pain killer as it pains very little if touched. But the tumour size is neither increasing nor decreasing for last ten days. Any immediate medicine to reduce the hardness? If nothing works, is it cancer? Don't say yes. My body seems resistant to cancer and this tumour is just there doing not much harm or pain till date. Advice immediately medicine to reduce this tumour or advice if something to test immediately. I wish you to try to rule out cancer but then you are the doctor to advice.
