                                    So there is no chance that cancer can be transferred? 
The liquid that came out would contain cancer cells?

                                    Hello again Shafi,
No, cancers are not contagious, they can never be transmitted from one person and another.
Even if the fluid that came out contains cancer cells, cancer will not get transmitted to anyone who comes in contact with that fluid.
So, please stay calm and relax, nothing will happen to your children.
I hope that clears your doubts.
Best wishes
