Common Questions and Answers about Throat cancer in women

Avatar f tn I would say it could be oral HPV but that this is fairly rare in women and the wart strain does not cause cancer (from what my research indicates). There are about 100 strains of HPV and only a very few cause cancer and warts and neither do both. As always it is best to just go and get tested when in doubt. On the bright side many strains of HPV can be flushed from the body in months to a couple of years.
Avatar m tn Also... cancer does not develop in a few weeks. A lump in the back of your throat from an exposure a few months ago seems very unlikely. Also, everyone can see the veins in the back of their throat. I just checked... I can too.
Avatar f tn My husband and I have only had oral sex a couple times early in our relationship, but I have noticed I do for FACT have some oral warts in my mouth and in my throat, but not many. I have been reading that HPV is linked to throat cancer, so i am EXTREMELY worried and anxious!! I am going to the doctor next week. My questions are.... 1. My GYN told me I was now immune to the strain of HPV i have, even though I may be immune could i still get warts? 2.
Avatar n tn She said she had to go back for another pap, but the doctor said it was the strain that could cause cancer in women. I am so paranoid now that since I had oral with her that the virus particles are in my throat and will eventually give me throat cancer, or that her giving me oral will cause me to get cancer down there. I know I sound pathetic, but I don't know what else to do.
Avatar m tn one thing for oral cancer and HPV affects both men and women, the risk of infection and the presence of HPV in the throat has been shown to be the same, and I am quite convinced that giving oral sex is more common in women than men, in this perspective should both HPV infection and cancer is more common in women, but reality says that only 33% of women remaining men who suffer from cancer, yet another factor that suggests other factors are more common in men as alcohol, smoking, poor diet and hy
Avatar m tn Greetings. I'm a 49 year old male who has been married for 18 years. My wife had at least 15 partners prior to our marriage. I had only five. I'm sure that I have had a prior HPV infection. Last August, I took the idiotic decision to stray. In a one time event, I performed oral sex on a gay male (he said he was clean). I've had all of the tests done and they were negative. I'm still concerned about HPV though.
Avatar f tn FNA is not surgery - it is a biopsy of the mass to see whether you have cancer or not. It is only a test.

Avatar f tn My 82-year old Dad, who is in good health, has been getting very hoarse in his throat for going on a year now.

Avatar f tn For about 4 years now, I've had this weird lump in my throat. It's not there all the time but I notice it mostly at night. It feels like I have to keep swallowing my saliva. It keeps me awake and I'm really worried that I have cancer in my esophagus. I rarely get heart burn and it's the only symptom that I have. Is it possible that I have Barrett's esophagus?
Avatar m tn i saw u all r helping so much to people i just want to ask HVP in throat i mean throat cancer by HPV by only oral sex or can also by vaginal sex?. becuse i had sex but i never did oral to any female and i m felling like somthing stuck in my neck like tonsil problem or what? can this be HPV throat cancer? or this cause only by oral sex? please help thank you so much.
Avatar n tn The risk is pretty low, with the vast amount of the sexually active population having hpv at some point (80%) and the low numbers of oral and throat cancers- it can be concluded that your chances are low, but no impossible another factor they are connecting with hpv and throat cancer is marijuana use-whether or not this is just a correlatio is still up for further research.

Avatar m tn I also have had some ear pain with this round of the tightness, I have never noticed ear pain before when I was having the tight feeling in my throat. I think the last time that I had the tight feeling in my throat besides right now, was sometime in 2007. So it comes and goes, and it stays away for a long time when it leaves.
Avatar n tn I have noticed on/off for several years that I get a sharp buzzing pain on the left side of my head in the throat area. It happens once in a great while where I will be fine one minute and then all of a sudden I get this sharp buzzing pain, then after a few seconds it goes away. I have only had this about 1-2x every 6months-1year but when it comes it is really painful and scares me. No other symptoms.
Avatar f tn Off and on for the past year or so I have been having this sensation of a lump in my throat. I went to see an ENT and he did a scope (went in through the nose and looked down at the throat), I had a CT of the throat, and an Ultrasound of my thryroid and a Upper GI Series (Barium Swallow).
Avatar n tn I suggest you see an Ear nose and throat specialist. They will be able to take a look in your nasal area as well as in your throat. So suggest to your family doctor you would like to see your local specialist.
Avatar f tn It helped to calm my fears and he talks about the same article I read which states high strain hpv (not the kind causing warts but the kind causing cervical cancer) is now a big factor in the rise of throat cancer. According to him less than 5% of people with high strain develop throat cancer. I can rest a little better now. Thanks again.
