Hi,

I too fit this demographic. Diagnosed at 33 (12 years ago) with SCC on right side of tongue HPV- I am a lot got social drinker and smoked briefly in cmy pledge mainly socially

the time or was large and very aggressive and I had a full glossectomy, skin graft and neck dissection chemo radiati N the works.

I had a removable denture in that side hat rubbed my tongue so maybe that plus smoking did it who know. It is a strange phenomena that it is rising amping our demographic.
