Depending on the type of cancer, tumors can be a variety of mixed or solid colors: red, pink, black, grey, white, yellow, orange, blue, brown.

You can check images of many types of tumors to verify 'color' at:

Yours is a hard question Where is this tumor that you can see it? Most tumors are internal or in the case of oral(mouth,throat) they would appear to be red or like your gums and mouth lining.
Skin tumors may flesh color or darker.
In my cancer, anal cancer, the tumor grew external at the edge of my anal opening. It was "albino white", after I started chemo and radiation it begin to change to a dark tan. When treatment was complete and I had the residual tumor surgically excised it had turned to a very dark, almost black.
I truly hope thst if you have cancer you are under the care of a reputable onclogist.
Best of luck to you!

Cancer is abnormal tissue growth.

Tumors usually need a lot of blood to keep growing.

Because of this, most tumours would be pink/red.

However, when my uncle was dying of mouth/throat cancer he had what looked like whitish stuff growing in his mouth, but that could have been just on the surface.
