Suggest Remedy For Lump In Throat

Hi, writing on behalf of my boyfriend, aged 42, 13 stone 7lbs approx. Generally fit and healthy but does smoke 5 cigarettes per day on average and alcohol consumption slightly above average (approx 2-3 pints beer daily). He's found an olive sized lump in his throat and has now found some blood in his saliva. Any ideas?
