Burning throat is not necessarily cancer, but may also be related to the intake of spicy and irritating foods, reflux esophagitis and so on. There are many causes of burning throat, such as ingestion of spicy and irritating foods, excessive use of voice and other physiological factors, and reflux esophagitis, acute pharyngitis and other pathologic factors, which are not necessarily caused by cancer. However, for a small number of patients with burning throat, we should be vigilant that it is caused by esophageal cancer, pharyngeal cancer and other cancers, especially for those who have a family history of cancer, which needs to be taken seriously. If burning throat is caused by cancer, patients are usually susceptible to symptoms such as blood in the mucus, excessive coughing, hoarseness, difficulty in swallowing, difficulty in breathing, and malignant symptoms such as anemia and weight loss. Because the symptoms alone can not diagnose the disease, so burning throat patients should consult a regular hospital examination, combined with medical history, symptoms and other comprehensive diagnosis of the disease. It is recommended that people with burning throat should pay attention to the rationality of their diet, try to take warm and cool food as the main, avoid spicy and stimulating food, smoking, drinking alcohol, drinking carbonated beverages and so on.
