Hello everyone ,
I am new here i have looking around on this page and site for a few days now and am so scared terrified to be exact .I am 41
years old have smoked since i was a teenager and have been having some problems lately such as sore throat , sore ears . I also noticed that i have a very red patch in the roof of my mouth a dentist actually pointed it out to me a couple of years ago . It does not hurt is flat . This really scares me . Does this mean i have cancer ? What can be done about it ?

You won't know until you have a biopsy - to expedite matters I would go to an ENT as soon as possible. Take care.
