Oral cancer is a potentially deadly disease that can spread rapidly throughout the body in its advanced stages, making it all the more important to visit your doctor at regular intervals for checkups and screenings. Early detection is key to successfully treating oral cancer; however, even with successful treatment and removal of tumors or growths, there are still potential long-term side effects from surgery, radiation therapy and chemotherapy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s natural to be scared when you hear about such a serious condition as oral cancer; however, being aware of risk factors helps increase the chances of early diagnosis and successful treatment. In addition to visiting your doctor regularly for checkups and screenings, it\u2019s important to watch for signs and symptoms of oral cancer such as sores that don&#8217;t heal, lumps or pain in the mouth, a feeling of something stuck in the throat and any other changes that don\u2019t go away after two weeks.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column_inner][\/et_pb_row_inner][et_pb_row_inner _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px||15px||false|false&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column_inner saved_specialty_column_type=&#8221;3_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text module_id=&#8221;Diagnosis&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.20.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_font=&#8221;Raleway||||||||&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#292929&#8243; text_font_size=&#8221;16px&#8221; text_line_height=&#8221;1.9em&#8221; header_2_font=&#8221;Raleway|700|||||||&#8221; header_2_font_size=&#8221;28px&#8221; header_2_line_height=&#8221;1.7em&#8221; header_5_font=&#8221;Raleway|700|||||||&#8221; header_5_text_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; header_5_font_size=&#8221;17px&#8221; header_5_line_height=&#8221;1.4em&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; header_2_line_height_tablet=&#8221;1.7em&#8221; header_2_line_height_phone=&#8221;1.2em&#8221; header_2_line_height_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h2><b>How long can you live with mouth cancer?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.20.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_font=&#8221;Raleway||||||||&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#292929&#8243; text_font_size=&#8221;16px&#8221; text_line_height=&#8221;1.9em&#8221; header_2_font=&#8221;Raleway|700|||||||&#8221; header_2_font_size=&#8221;28px&#8221; header_2_line_height=&#8221;1.7em&#8221; header_5_font=&#8221;Raleway|700|||||||&#8221; header_5_text_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; header_5_font_size=&#8221;17px&#8221; header_5_line_height=&#8221;1.4em&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; header_2_line_height_tablet=&#8221;1.7em&#8221; header_2_line_height_phone=&#8221;1.2em&#8221; header_2_line_height_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;]<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This can vary significantly depending on the stage of cancer when it is detected and treated.
