Throat cancer is a common name for throat cancer. It includes several diseases, the symptoms of which vary. They were listed by specialists from the Macmillan Cancer Support charity, writes Express.
So, the appearance of thyroid cancer is indicated by the formation of a “lump” on the neck, which does not hurt, but is constantly increasing. It forms in the gland itself in the front of the neck, below the vocal apparatus.
Difficulty swallowing usually indicates the occurrence of esophageal cancer. According to doctors, people with this diagnosis may feel as if food is stuck in their throat or chest.
Tracheal cancer, which is commonly found in people over 60, is characterized by shortness of breath, coughing up blood, wheezing, hoarse voice, difficulty swallowing, chills, and frequent chest infections.
While these symptoms may be indicative of a number of other disorders, experts advise seeking medical attention when they occur.
