I am 17 years old...I know its very rare for oral cancer to occur at this age but i have been a continuous smoker for almost 3 years now. A couple of months ago i started to get a sore throat. It wasnt unbearable...just uncomfortable. Well it still feels soar now in June. I also notice the glands inmy neck were swallen and saor as well and went to the doctor. He said it was just a post nasel drip from allergies and gave me Zyrtec. Well it helped for a while but my throat is still soar and every once in a while i get an ear pain. Ive done the self checking in my mouth and theres no lumps or discolored tissue. Do you think Im in any danger? thanks. P.S. I am also taking various viatamins everyday. Could that help prevent cancer?
