At home, you can pay attention for any of the following:

  • A lump or thickening in your throat
  • White or red patches on your tongue, tonsils, or lining of your cheeks and gums
  • Numbness of any oral feature
  • Any type of lesion, cut, or canker-type sore that doesn’t heal within 14 days

If you notice anything unusual, be sure to tell us or your doctor.
