Skin-Cancer Types
There are several types of cancer that affect the tongue, but squamous cell carcinoma is the most common. Tongue cancer can appear on the front of your tongue, known as "oral tongue cancer". Or it may form near where your tongue connects to the base of your mouth, called "oropharyngeal cancer."
If you're concerned about tongue cancer, you may be wondering what the signs are. Here's a rundown of the symptoms to watch out for:
● Red or white patches on your tongue that don't go away
● A sore that doesn't heal after a week or two
● A swelling on the side of the tongue that touches the teeth
● Pain when swallowing
● Mouth numbness
● You might bleed from your tongue for no apparent reason
The exact cause of tongue cancer isn't known, but it's believed that the following factors play a part:
● Drinking alcohol regularly (more than one drink a day)
● Smoking
● Having a family history of mouth or throat cancer
● Having an undiagnosed case of HPV (human papillomavirus) infection
Tongue cancer is usually diagnosed by visual inspection of your tongue and the back of your throat by your doctor. They will look for white or red patches and ulcers on the tongue or in the mouth.
In addition to examining your mouth, your doctor may also order imaging tests like X-rays or CT scans to get a more complete picture of what's going on inside your mouth
