Victoria learned clot behind his tongue is a dangerous cancer.
"I think it's just a regular sore throat , and it would disappear on its
own , " said Victoria , who lives with her husband , Gareth ( 54 ) , in
Kingston , England . Thus quoted from the Mirror, Saturday (11/16/2013) .
Victoria’s mother then forced him to visit a doctor. Surprisingly,
according to Victoria, the doctor said to her, “sloppy bitch! Why come to the
doctor now? " . Jean- Pierre Jeannon , consultant head and neck surgeon at
London Bridge Hospital , said the glands that grow in different cancers by
ordinary sore throat . Clumps of cancer cells continue to grow and the pain
tends not stay in one place. June this year, Victoria underwent MRI and biopsy.
From here she knows she has a two -stage oral cancer, which is caused by HPV.
This virus is suspected from oral sex and French kiss. But Victoria
was lucky; the cancer has not spread the virus to other body parts. She also
underwent all kinds of therapy and treatment, and is now healthy again.
“I lost 60 percent of my sense of taste. My Mouth become
very dry, and makes me not able to eat my favorite foods: bread, cake, meat,
and chocolate. Please do this, check the palate, the tongue, the bottom of the tongue,
up the walls inside of your cheek. If you feel any different, do not delay to
consult a doctor, "said Victoria.

cancer or oral cancer. They guessed the causes of oral cancer are smoking, alcohol,
poor diet, and papillomavirus.
