10 Mouth Cancer Symptoms

Symptom #7: Hoarseness
Hoarseness can be present in certain types of head and neck cancers. Laryngeal cancers often cause hoarseness or a change in the voice at very early stage. However, for cancers that don’t start on the vocal cords, hoarseness occurs only at a very late stage or when they have spread to the vocal cords.
More commonly, patients with oral cancer may experience difficulty articulating words (i.e. tongue cancer).
