Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
Thank you for the reply.
I used to eat betel nut, and now I read the article that says it causes cancer. Now I am worried and checked my CBC and CRP. All reports are normal. What should I do? Please reply.
Thanks.
Hello,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
I can understand your concern.
It will not harm you if you stop chewing betel nut now. It will cause trouble if you chew for more than 15 to 20 years with heavy use. Otherwise, it will not cause any problem. Just stop chewing betel nut. You will not have cancer.
I hope this information is helpful to you.
Thanks.
