Best Doctors for Larynx Cancer in Bhopal

Larynx Cancer refers to the cancer of the voice box or larynx. The larynx helps us to speak, breathe, and swallow and contains the vocal cords. Larynx cancer occurs in three parts of the larynx such as the supraglottis, middle glottis, and subglottis. Supraglottis refers to the upper part of the larynx, the middle glottis being the middle part, and the lower part of the larynx is called the subglottis. Larynx cancer induces symptoms such as persistent sore throat or cough, pain and difficulty in swallowing, voice changes like hoarseness, lump in the neck or throat, and difficulty in making voice sounds, which is termed dysphonia and ear pain. One should consult a doctor if there are symptoms like trouble breathing, noisy or high-pitched breathing, a Globus sensation in the throat, and blood in the cough. Larynx cancer is caused by some forms of human papillomavirus which causes sexually transmitted infections. The treatment modalities for larynx cancer involve chemotherapy, radiation therapy, immunotherapy and surgical procedures such as laryngectomy, transoral laser surgery (TOLS) and minimally invasive techniques to remove the cancer.
