Persistent Hoarseness or a Lump in Your Neck? Let’s Rule Out Something Serious.

Dr. Peerbaccus provides professional ENT screening for throat cancer, suspicious lymph nodes, and chronic symptoms that may signal deeper concerns.

When to Consider ENT Cancer Evaluation

Warning signs can be subtle. See a specialist if you experience:

◎  Persistent hoarseness or voice changes

◎  Unexplained neck lump
◎  Throat pain lasting more than 2–3 weeks
◎  Ear pain on one side with no infection
◎  Weight loss or fatigue
◎  Bleeding from the mouth or throat

Common Areas ENT Cancer May Start

◎  Larynx (voice box)
◎  Pharynx (throat)
