The cancers can be treated successfully if diagnosed early. The choice of treatment depends on the size of the tumor, its location, and whether it has spread to other parts of the body.

No - still alive obviously but 2nd recent reoccurrence of Head and Throat cancer, tonsil area, jawbone, and left side of face. Very concerned about 'nil' treatment options since I can not undergo surgery nor re-radiation. Currently chemo but not working that great. Trying to do alternative treatment as well. Wondering how long I have since chemo is not a 'cure' for head and throat cancer. And, wondering 'how much chemo can I body take?

Cancer that involves the mouth and pharynx is commonly referred to as "head and neck cancer." Head and neck cancer encompasses a group of cancers that can affect various areas within the head and neck region, including the oral cavity (mouth), pharynx (throat), larynx (voice box), nasal cavity, paranasal sinuses, salivary glands, and the soft tissues of the neck. The most common type of head and neck cancer is squamous cell carcinoma, which typically originates in the squamous cells lining the mucous membranes of these structures. Smoking and alcohol use are significant risk factors for head and neck cancer, although the human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is becoming an increasingly recognized cause, particularly for oropharyngeal cancers.
