If you are seriously scared of throat cancer PLEASE see a doctor right away - the quicker you get it looked at the quicker it will be for you to recover, but in my own honest opinion you are probably just getting a terrible case of laryngitis - since you sing a lot that is a common healt issue. Rest your voice for a few days - see your doctor if it doesn't go away though and like I said if you are really scared please see a doctor and let him/her know of your concerns.

It is highly unlikely that you have throat cancer. Just a plain sore throat is more likely...or irritation fom singing a lot. No one on Yahoo Answers can say for sure because we cannot examine your throat! Need to go to the doctor.

It is quite a jump to go from "sore throat" to "cancer." You bypassed all sort of very common and usual problems....
You probably have the regular sore throat... Go get checked out. At worst, you probably have a flu....

Probably not but it might be throat strain. Go see an Eye Ear Nose and Throat doctor.

Alot of professional singers get throat strain. I am willing to bet that it is more than likely that. However, to find out for sure I'd make an appointment with the doctor.

Probably not. Go to your doctor. It may be acid reflux which can cause sores in your throat.

No. Silly girl. A sign of having a tumor in your throat would be choking and not being able to swallow food. Plus, you would be sick.
