Tongue cancer lateral

Common Questions and Answers about Tongue cancer lateral

tongue

Avatar n tn Yesterday I noticed what seems to be a lump(swelling) on the right lateral side of the tongue, very deep inside(right where the portion of the tongue that you can move ends). The thing is composed of 3-4 little things(folliate papillae?). It is of the same colour as is the tongue on the lateral and you can easy move it around and even separate the 3-4 components. My question is: does this resemble tongue cancer in any way, or it could be foliate papillitis:inflamation of the foliate papillae.
Avatar m tn Hi, I have developed white tongue and bumps at the back for more than 9 months, the lateral border of my tongue is abit white but doctor said it is not candida or leukoplakia. is it a possible sign of oral cancer? I'm worrying because i kissed an unknown girl deeply, could it be hpv causing cancer?
Avatar m tn m a male, i have white tongue with bumps at the back for more than 9 months, no oral sex but just had deep kissing with an unknown girl, doctor said it is not candida or leukoplakia and the lateral border of my tongue is also a bit white, just worrying about oral cancer. Is it a sign of oral HPV?
Avatar m tn There is the possibility of tongue cancer. My uncle had this and they removed the tumor from his tongue, But that is worst case scenario. When is your biopsy?
Avatar n tn d have it checked for sure asap. Oral cancer quite often first presents itself on the lateral (side) tongue so you want to rule this out. It may be something as harmless as a canker sore though so don't worry.
Avatar n tn I have none of the known risk factors except for being in the small rare group of otherwise healthy young people with oral cancer. I had a hemiglossectomy (they removed about 1/6 of the tongue - right lateral), a flap was taken from my left and a partial neck dissection. The lymph nodes came back clean as did the margins around my tumor. My surgery was 19 days ago. At my last appointment (about a week ago) my team said I was healing rapidly and ahead of schedule.
Avatar f tn Hi, Last December my husband noticed some round spots on the left lateral border of his tongue. They seemed to go away then a few days later the spots came back. He saw his dentist which thought it was geographic tongue and also an ent. The ent didn't think it looked like geographic tongue And was leaning more towards lichen planus. The spots come and go, get larger, disappear and then reappear the next day in the same side of his tongue.
Avatar n tn from one year i get bald patch on one side of my lateral tongue, it appears at same location. it clears and shows up again after a relief of 2-3 days. antibiotics do help the healing. what is it, it also makes my lateral tongue sore. is it stress related or something physiological. It scares me. link: http://s1344.photobucket.com/albums/p641/veer_yoddha/?action=view&current=IMG_20130423_101120_20130423101253380_zpse26333b2.
Avatar f tn The base of tongue has a heterogeneous asymmetrical nodular lymphoid enhancement with what appears to be asymmetric lymphoid hyperplasia of the right base of tongue. -- Furthermore, there is an associated heterogeneously enhanced asymmetrical nodular deformity to the right anterolateral pharyngeal-lingual junction.
Avatar f tn I had a strange sensation at the right back of the underside of my tongue (where your tongue meets your throat). I saw two dentists & an ENT who weren't concerned. I then saw an oral surgeon who had a look at the area & said there was an indentation right at the very back on that side & not on the other. He took a small biopsy to be safe which came back as irritated keratosis from possible trauma.
Avatar n tn I will be having two nodes on the lateral part of my tongue removed and sent for biopsy by a dental surgeon... he doesn't think there cancer but believes they may be viral..... he asked me if i had any other warts? I don't believe I do ...but 4 years ago i was diagnosed with herpes and 3 years before that i had a soft tissue wart? i quess removed from the vagina area (outer part skin part) The gynocologist at the time just said it was a wart no concern and removed it with solution.
Avatar m tn I recently developed some lateral tongue changes near the posterior visual edge. The changes are just in front of the lingual tonsils and may even be lingual tonsils Im just not sure. There is some minor pain like I can feel that there's something going on/irritation. Has become more prominent Id say in the past week. I do grind my teeth fairly significantly. Right more than left as evidenced by wear and greater gum recession on the right.
Avatar m tn The breast shows few dense soft tissue density lesions in the superior quadrant,lateral outer quadrant,lateral central quadrant, lateral inferior quadrant and medial quadrant.Sonomammography correlation reveals multiple hypoechoic lesions in the superior quadrant measures(10*6mm),lateral outer quadrant measures(16*7mm),lateral central quadrant measures (4*3mm),lateral inferior quadrant measures(12*6mm, 11*4mm and 6*4mm) and medial quadrant measures (4*3mm).
Avatar f tn My symptoms were reccurent mild geographic tongue on the tip and lateral side(never last more than 4 days) and also red patch under my tongue not sore at all, it feel like the lesion were inside the tongue skin. Never had any other hiv specific symptoms. I'm so affraid cuz i never experienced such things before. Can hiv do something like that cuz they said that hiv symptom differ from each other.
Avatar f tn m a 31 year old male and about 5 months ago I noticed 2 bump on the side at the very back of my tongue which can only been seen if I stick it out really far, I went to the doctors because I also had a whiteish or yellow patch on the top of my tongue which they thought was due to gerd (acid reflux) they also mentioned mild thrush and put my on Medican for both (the nystatin did nothing for oral thrush) so they concluded it was acid reflux.
Avatar f tn Reduction of upper lingual surface may solve the problem.Indentation of tongue tends to occur in lateral margin, which may be associated with overcontour of lingual surface of posterior teeth. If posterior teeth are implant supported, the restorative dentist may need to use angled abutment or ucla abutment to change the angulation of abutments.

Avatar m tn The left side is, for the lack of words, thicker than the right. The right lateral of my tongue is fairly thin. When I wake up, they seem to thicken, but during the day they are fairly thinner. What is this? I've read it can be OHL, but I tested HIV- .

Iv been so paranoid an d so stress about my situation because evertime i research it always says about HIV. oki heres my situation . the only thing iv done was only oral sex.
Avatar m tn I have a small white ring on the left lateral area of my tongue. It usually starts off very small about the size of a pea and then grows to the size of about a quarter over about a week before going away. Only to come back in 2-4 weeks. There is usually very very mild pain or it is completely painless. The rest of my mouth has no apparent abnormalities. I was just wondering if this sounded like herpes or something else. I am a gay male and have performed unprotected oral sex.
Avatar f tn From the beginning I have thought about a prophylatic bi-lateral mastectomy. Is a prophylatic bi-lateral mastectomy unreasonable? I too have had many different opions from oncology surgeons and oncologists. Lois This discussion is related to <a href='http://www.medhelp.org/posts/show/261703'>LCIS</a>.
Avatar n tn Both lower lobes show focal areas of increased activity and there is relative photopenic area in the right mid lateral aspec, and also in the left lateral aspect. CONCLUSION: Abnormal increase uptake consistent with hyperthyroid state, correlate with in vitro T4-T3 levels. Scan consistent with multi-nodular goiter. Both hot and cold nodules were demonstrated. Hot nodules in both lower lobes and cold nodules in the mid lateral aspect of the right and left lobe.
