~~~tumor Question Need Advice?

396545116 Today, I just found out by my friend Mauricio that he has a tumor... He is only 16 years old and has had it for over a year.. He hasn't told anyone but me, today..I am very worried for him because he told me that his tumor has grown ever since last year (the tumor is in his left side of his stomach) and he smokes weed to relief the pain. I was so shocked he hasn't told anyone or hasn't even checked it out, to see what kind of tumor it is. He has no insurance, he doesn't want to tell his family because he says they won't believe him and I know that a tumor can sometimes lead to cancer..so I am very worried for my friend and I don't know what to do..
I felt the bump he had and he told me that the first time he felt the bump it was bleeding. He asked his mom that a friend of his had a tumor and it started bleeding (to make sure if it really was a tumor) she said yes and ever since then, everytime he plays or someone even touches it, it hurts him..

  1. Javier Loyo - If he hasn't been checked by a doctor I don't think he knows that he has a tumor in his stomach. They can only tell that through some sort of radiology study like a CAT Scan. If by stomach you mean his abdomen where you can actually see it of feel it then it could possibly be a hernia or an abscess.

    Or he might just be using that as an excuse to smoke a little puff puff give =-/

  2. Denisedds - Tumors do not lead to cancer either they are cancer or they’re not.
    Common sense should tell you if he can see or feel a tumor so can his family. If he cannot, then he doesn’t know he has a tumor.

  3. Haircut - If a tumor is big enough, you can feel it. he has to stop smoking weed or else it will get worse.
