Kidney Tumor
It doesnt spread because renal cell carcinoma is unique like that. Even at gigantic sizes, they are still curable. It is one of the few cancers that are like that. This answer is for educational purposes only and does not constitute individual medical advice. I strongly advise everyone to consult with their regular physician before embarking on any treatment plan, and this is not intended to be a substitute for any form of in-person medical care.

Paracetamol toxicity?
Immediately stop taking the paracetamol. You should have your liver functions and serum paracetamol level checked stat. Probably you will be ok as while that is above the threshold for toxicity it is not extremely far above, but your symptoms indicate potential symptomatic toxicity, and that should NEVER be ignored. If it means going to the Emergency Room to check those levels then I would do so. READ MORE
