Head and neck cancer symptoms

Head and neck cancer encompasses a variety of malignant tumors that can occur in or around the throat, larynx, nose, sinuses, and mouth.
Recognizing the symptoms early is crucial for effective treatment and management.
Common symptoms of head and neck cancer may include a persistent sore throat, difficulty swallowing, unexplained weight loss, a lump or sore that does not heal, changes in voice, and persistent ear pain.
Other signs might include a white or red patch in the mouth, swelling in the jaw, or bleeding in the mouth.
These symptoms can often be mistaken for other less serious conditions, which is why it's important to pay attention to any persistent or unusual changes in your body.
Risk factors for head and neck cancer include tobacco use, excessive alcohol consumption, and human papillomavirus (HPV) infection.
If you experience any of these symptoms, especially if you have risk factors, it is important to seek medical advice promptly.
Early detection can significantly improve the prognosis and treatment outcomes.
