Cancers are one of the most abhorrent diseases in the history of mankind. Fighting such a disease takes a lot of strength and hope. Cancers can even occur in the kidney, liver, and thyroid gland. 

The Thyroid Carcinoma usually occurs in our neck region, in the Thyroid Gland spreads to other parts of our body such as the liver and kidney. Just like every other cancer, this cancer also develops by DNA mutation, which leads to abnormal growth of cells.

Causes

(I) Obesity: Obesity has been known to cause many kinds of cancers. Maintaining a healthy body weight is a must because when a person is obese or overweight, he is more susceptible to various diseases, including cancer.

(II) Family History: If thyroid or Liver or Kidney cancer runs in your family blood, then you are more likely to have it.

(III) Alcohol Consumption: Alcohol consumption in excess amounts can cause permanent damage to the Liver and Kidney. 

(IV) Radiation Therapy: Having undergone too much radiation therapies in the past also leads to DNA mutation in the cells, ultimately causes cancer.

Symptoms

(I) Swelling of the thyroid gland in the neck region along with pain. This happens due to cancer in the Thyroid gland. The patient might face difficulty in swallowing, and his voice becomes more hoarse.

(II) In Kidney cancer, there is blood in the urine. The patient experiences pain in the abdomen region and swelling. High blood pressure is also common. 

(III) Liver cancer usually includes symptoms like pain in the abdomen, yellowing of the skin and white portions in the eye, vomiting, and fatigue. People suffering from liver cirrhosis can have severe conditions if they develop this cancer. The best way to keep your liver healthy is to avoid alcohol as much as possible.

Treatment

Treatment of cancers involves transplant, radiation therapy, and, last but not least, certain medications. SORANIB is a drug that helps with the same. This medicine is not prescribed to individuals under eighteen years of age. Its uses are:

(I) Treatment of Hepatocellular carcinoma that affects liver cells. 

(II) Treatment of Renal Cell Cancer that affects the kidneys.

(III) Treatment of thyroid cancer.

Likewise, every drug, soranib also has some side effects, which are:

(I) Pain in the abdominal region and stomach.

(II) Bleeding Gums and loss of appetite.

(III) Nausea, vomiting, and difficulty in breathing.
