Mine was very agressive and caused extreme pain, I am 28 and had surgery on the 16th. I had SCC of left lateral tongue stage II then possible III at surgery. Just try and keep him calm but as well put a foot on it, You have come to the perfect place for support, I dont know what I would do without OCF. If my opinion does not help any I am sure someone else will know much more. Brian is always a huge help!
