Surgery, chemotherapy, targeted drugs and immunotherapy do the treating; the supportive shelf carries patients through.
Colon cancer treatment runs on proven medical artillery - surgery, chemotherapy, targeted drugs, immunotherapy - plus supportive products that ease the path. There is no herbal or over-the-counter cancer treatment on this list, by design.
Government schemes (Ayushman Bharat), state cancer funds, trust hospitals and generic chemotherapy make treatment accessible at every budget - ask the hospital's medical social worker; money should never be the reason treatment is refused.
Surgery, chemo, targeted drugs and immunotherapy do the treating; anti-nausea medicines and the supportive shelf carry the patient through; everything promising a herb-cure is out.
