Oral & Head-and-Neck Cancer
Cancers of the mouth, throat and voice box — strongly linked to tobacco, and very treatable when found early.
Head-and-neck cancers are among the most common cancers in India, largely driven by tobacco and areca-nut use. Early lesions are often visible and curable, which makes awareness and quick assessment vital.
Care balances cure with preserving speech, swallowing and appearance — coordinated between surgery, radiation and medical oncology with reconstruction where needed.
Early signs to check
- A mouth ulcer or white/red patch that doesn't heal in weeks
- Difficulty or pain when swallowing, or a persistent hoarse voice
- A lump in the neck, or reduced mouth opening
Symptoms have many causes and don't mean cancer — but persistent changes are always worth checking early.
