Is hoarseness an early symptom of laryngeal cancer?

Is hoarseness an early symptom of laryngeal cancer? Many people think that hoarseness is caused by a cold, so they don't care about it and let the condition continue to worsen. Finally, they go to the hospital for diagnosis and find out that it is laryngeal cancer. Therefore, the early symptoms of laryngeal cancer must be discovered in time so that it can be effectively treated. The following are the early symptoms of laryngeal cancer.

Early symptoms of laryngeal cancer include:

1. The early symptom of laryngeal cancer is abnormal sensation in the throat. Foreign body sensation, urgency or swallowing discomfort are the early symptoms of supraglottic laryngeal cancer. This symptom is similar to that of chronic pharyngitis and can be easily misdiagnosed as chronic pharyngitis, so this type of cancer is often not discovered until the middle or late stages.

2. Persistent hoarseness is one of the early symptoms of laryngeal cancer. Because laryngeal cancer affects the vocal cords, even if the volume is small, hoarseness will occur, so hoarseness is the most common early symptom of laryngeal cancer. Hoarseness caused by colds and inflammation will quickly improve as the inflammation subsides, but hoarseness caused by laryngeal cancer will progressively worsen and gradually develop into a coarser and hoarse voice until complete loss of voice.

The above content is about the early symptoms of laryngeal cancer, which is of certain benefit to patients. If someone finds the above early symptoms of laryngeal cancer, he needs to go to the hospital for a detailed examination in time to avoid delaying the patient's condition. I wish all patients a speedy recovery.
