It is wrong to say that “three symptoms tell you have laryngeal cancer”, diagnosis of laryngeal cancer needs to be based on symptoms and professional examination.
1. Symptoms: Common symptoms of laryngeal cancer include hoarseness, sore throat, difficulty in swallowing, difficulty in breathing, cough and feeling of foreign body when swallowing, etc. If you find yourself having these symptoms, you need to suspect that it may be laryngeal cancer, and you need to go to hospital for further examination.
2. Professional examination: patients can undergo X-ray examination, CT examination, MRI examination and biopsy of lesions, etc. X-ray can determine the location of laryngeal lesions; CT can determine the extent of invasion of laryngeal cancer and whether there are metastases in lymph nodes; MRI examination can help physicians to stage laryngeal cancer; and biopsy of lesions can help to confirm the diagnosis of laryngeal cancer.
The diagnosis of laryngeal cancer can only be confirmed through a comprehensive analysis based on specific clinical manifestations and examination results. After diagnosis, patients need to undergo professional treatment in time.
