Hello, folks. I have been smoking for more than 30 years. Lately, I have been sensing a strange feeling in my throat. I went to a doctor and he ordered some tests after examining me. I think he suspects on throat cancer. How should my doctor know if I had this type of cancer? Thanks.
Hello to you too. Many throat cancers are discovered advanced stage. Physical examination can provide us with many details. There are other methods that can be helpful as well. Laboratory tests can help. Imaging methods are also useful. X-ray and especially ultrasound are used here. I don’t know many details. I hope this will help. Bye!
