Head and neck cancers, which are twice as prevalent in men compared to women and primarily affect individuals over the age of 50, represent approximately 4% of all cancer cases in the U.S. Common signs of oral cavity cancer are red or white patches or a non-healing sore in the mouth or on the tongue. People with oropharyngeal cancer often feel like something is stuck in their throat, have difficulty swallowing or have muffled speech.
