What Are The Signs That Show The Presence Of Throat Cancer?

Hey i'm 21 years old and im afraid that i might have throat cancer. I've smoked as much as 5 cigs a day, but I mostly smoke just one a day for the most part. But now I've been feeling like i got something stuck in the bottom of my thoart, close to the collar bone. or maybe right at the base of my throat, where my mouth ends and my throat starts. it's been like that for more than a month. should I be freaking out?

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
You have habit of smoking but you don't have any symptoms of throat cancer.
Symptoms of throat cancers are difficulty in swallowing, pain while swallowing, mass or lump etc. You should go for endoscopic examination once to rule out fear of cancer. Stop cigarette smoking. Consult your doctor and plan accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have any doubts then contact me at bit.ly/Drsanghvihardik, I will be happy to answer you.
Thanks for using health care magic.
Wish you a very good health.
