Hi,
First of all, it's sad to know what your father in law had been going through lately. Based on the history you have shared, he may need surgical intervention and chemotherapy as well as radiotherapy.
A surgical oncologist should better be consulted. Meanwhile OTC analgesics like acetaminophen can be given for pain. Drinking more water to avoid blood clot leading to urinary retention is recommended.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Saddiq Ulabidin, General & Family Physician
