What are some of the symptoms of oral cancer?

Answer 1

The treatment for oral cancer depends on the part of the mouth which is affected. Some of the common treatments include: 

Surgery

This oral cancer treatment is often used for people who have been diagnosed with cancer in its early stages. Surgery removes the tumour and cancer lymph nodes. Sometimes, other tissues around the mouth may also be needed to be taken out.

Radiation therapy

Radiation therapy is used in people diagnosed with advanced stages of oral cancer. The treatment involves radiation beams targeted at cancer cells for five days daily for two to three weeks.

Chemotherapy

This therapy uses drugs to destroy cancer cells through medicines or an intravenous (IV) line. Most of the patients acquire this treatment as outpatient, while only a few are hospitalized. 

Targeted therapy

Most doctors use targeted therapy to treat both early and advanced stages of cancer. In this therapy, a patient has injected drugs to reduce the cancer cells growth.
