Symptoms and manifestations of throat cancer?

Hoarseness is the earliest sign of laryngeal cancer. Laryngeal cancer is a tumor that grows on the vocal cord. Even if the volume is small, hoarseness will appear. All adults with hoarseness of unknown reason and lasting for more than two weeks should be examined carefully. Because at this time the patient is not itchy, often mistaken for "cold" or "pharyngitis". However, hoarseness caused by cold and inflammation will soon improve with the subside of inflammation, while hoarseness caused by laryngeal cancer will gradually develop into coarsening and hoarseness until complete aphasia.

Foreign body sensation, urgency or swallowing discomfort are the early symptoms of supraglottic carcinoma. However, the initial symptoms of this type of cancer are often not obvious until the second or third stage, and the history can be as long as several months. Therefore, if the middle-aged and old people have throat discomfort, they should do a comprehensive and careful examination. They should not be treated rashly by pharyngeal allelopathy or chronic pharyngitis, which will delay the precious opportunity of treatment.

Because tumor stimulation can produce irritative dry cough, blood in sputum, patients often have mucus adhesion, so often "wash throat". When the tumor is enlarged, it will block the airway and make the secretion of trachea discharge unobstructed, causing respiratory tract infection, wheezing and even dyspnea. In the middle and late stage, it is characterized by persistent cough and voice change.
