Medical Forum / General / General / July 2006mastesized cells
My Doctor said I had traumized my cells causing them to mastesize. So my question is : Do traumized mastesized cells turn into cancer. Especially if the cells are clustered under skin of arms and usually have a raise tempature in the clustered areas? >My Doctor said I had traumized my cells causing them to mastesize.

"Metastasis" is a word usually referred to cells which have spread from malignant tumors (cancers) allthough it can also be applied to the spread of infection. The elevated temperature which you describe is more characteristic of infection. But, you need to ask your doctor whether you have a "primary" cancer. Metastasizing cancer cells come from a primary cancer. Best, Bob Robert A. Fink, M. D.

When asked how to treat the traumized cells she said we don't. This causes me worry. She had orginially said it was probably VASCULRITHIS and gave me a shot of something. There was no change and a biopsy was done on some cells. Wherein traumaized cells were caused by a month of excessive over use of my arms pulling, pushing and over-exterion handling my husband foe 4 wks while away for his medical theraphy. This activity was 6-7 times a day versus 4 times once a week. >>My Doctor said I had traumized my cells causing them to mastesize.

Where are these "cells" that are "traumatized"? There is a condition called "hidradenitis" where the sweat glands under the arms can become infected and painful, and sometimes surgery has to be done to correct the problem. I am not sure, however, that this is what you ae experiencing. Please talk to your doctor and get more information. If you cannot understand what he/she is saying, take a friend who is a nurse, or some other type of health care person along with you. Best, Bob Robert A. Fink, M. D.
