Will there be bleeding in the throat in the early stages of laryngeal cancer?

There are many early symptoms of laryngeal cancer, including bleeding in the throat, hoarseness, and abnormal throat sensation. Different patients have different early symptoms of laryngeal cancer, so targeted treatment is recommended based on the patient's condition.

1. Throat bleeding: Due to the constant stimulation of the tumor, irritating dry cough symptoms occur. After the dry cough, the patient will have blood in the sputum and may also have throat bleeding symptoms, which are early symptoms of severe laryngeal cancer. As the patient's tumor continues to grow, symptoms of airway obstruction will also appear, causing poor discharge of tracheal secretions, leading to respiratory tract infections, and there may be wheezing and even difficulty breathing. It is recommended to treat throat bleeding caused by throat cancer through radiotherapy. Radiotherapy is the main way to treat throat cancer and is also effective in improving the problem of throat bleeding caused by throat cancer.

2. Hoarseness: Laryngeal cancer may affect the vocal cords. Even if the cancer is small, hoarseness may occur. Many patients with pharyngeal cancer have unexplained hoarseness in the early stages, which lasts for more than two weeks. It is recommended that patients undergo a throat examination in a timely manner and do not mistake it for inflammation caused by pharyngitis or colds.

3. Abnormal sensation in the throat: manifested as a sense of urgency, foreign body sensation, discomfort in swallowing, etc., which are typical early symptoms of laryngeal cancer.

After a patient develops laryngeal cancer, it is recommended to control the disease through surgery alone, radiotherapy alone, surgery plus chemotherapy, and immunotherapy.
