Cancer Treatment

When the cells in the body get damaged, it dies down and new cells take their place. This growth of the cells is formed after getting the right signals, but when these damaged cells tend to grow further and do not die down, it can cause cancer. These unwanted growths of the cells, pile up in the form of trillion cells and may start spreading in any part of the body. This abnormal spread can cause tumors, these tumors can be of three types, namely: Benign tumor, Malignant tumor, and Pre Malignant tumor.

Benign tumors are non-cancerous and non-aggressive, these slowly multiply. However, Malignant tumors are cancerous and aggressive too, it also multiplies at a higher rate. Pre Malignant tumors are at the stage where they can move in the direction of being cancerous.

At Cancer Treatment in Hyderabad, doctors will diagnose the entire affected area, to know about the spread and respective infection in the body. Cancer cells tell blood vessels to grow toward tumors. These blood vessels supply tumors with oxygen and nutrients and remove waste products from tumors.

Generally, these cells tend to hide from the immune system, because the immune system destroys the damaged cells. These cells trick the immune system to supply its required blood flow and make it grow rather than dispose of the body.

Well, these cancer cells survive in particular by relying on different kinds of nutrients than normal cells. In addition, some cancer cells make energy from nutrients in a different way than most normal cells. These cancer cells grow more quickly.
