Before deciding the appropriate treatment for your problem we need to confirm the diagnosis by doing a biopsy under Local anaesthesia. Further treatment will depend upon the result of biopsy. It may be Radiotherapy, Surgery, both or may nothing needed to do if the result shows no problem in the biopsied tissue.
