Symptom #10: Constant Need to Swallow
Having a constant need to swallow or clear the throat is an early symptom of throat cancer. The presence of a tumor causes the patient to feel as if there is a lump in the throat, which results in the constant need to swallow.
It is a nonspecific symptom that can often be confused with other harmless conditions, such as a sore throat. However, patients with these issues should seek medical attention to rule out serious conditions, such as throat cancer.
