Cancerous disease
Cancer disease is one of the deadly diseases around the world. The more deadly cancer is, the more expensive treatment is.

But many times this disease reaches such a serious condition that its treatment is not possible and the patient dies.
Treatment of cancer
Explain that the treatment of cancer around the world including India depends on its condition. Treatment of patients who are on the first stage of cancer are possible in less money. But the patients who are on the last stage of cancer, millions and millions of rupees are spent in their treatment, even then the life of the patient will be saved, it cannot be said.
Why treatment is so expensive?
Treatment of cancer is very expensive. But there are many reasons behind the treatment of cancer. One reason for this is that cancer medicines are made using advanced biotechnology. Not only this, pharmaceutical companies also take long time and money to make these medicines. At the same time, when this medicine comes in the market, its price increases, due to which it becomes difficult for the common man to buy these medicines. At the same time, the second reason is that the treatment of cancer goes on long, so it is also very expensive. In the western countries, the treatment of cancer is spent up to Rs 5 crore.
