My doc put me on antibiotics and told me I could have OC. Turns out he was right. This is an unusual circumstance. There are many other symptoms that are more common. Here is info from the main OCF pages. It has a section telling about signs and symptoms. http://oralcancerfoundation.org/facts/index.htm
