squamous cell in throat

Posted by jimchardy @jimchardy, Sep 30, 2018

I started developing a lesion in my throat about two months ago. It has recently become more aggressive to the point it has opened a hole in the back of my throat and liquids come out my nose when I swallow.

Any advice on this conditions implications would be appreciated..

HI @daddyof4 I know how you feel. But as Colleen says, it's better to get it seen. It's much scarier from the outside looking in and being in uncertainty than actually getting a diagnosis if it is cancer. These cancers are treatable but chances are it's not cancer at all. And the fear gets less when things are dealt with. I wish you well.
