A member asked:

How can tumour on the thoracic vertebrae be cured and what can we do to prevent it from being more serious?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See a specialist: You do not give enough information to answer accurately. You should see someone in your area that treats spinal tumors. The exact treatment depends on an accurate diagnosis. Treatment depends on the type of tumor, exactly where it is in the spine, & your symptoms. Do not ignore it. Get a second opinion if you have concerns.
