kinda scared?

Question

heyy everyone im 19 years old and ive had a sore throat on and off for the past three weeks and ive been a light smoker (10 cigarettes a day) for the past year and i was wondering if it was possible that it could be throat cancer or sore throat or just a throat infection i havent seen a doctor but i will soon thanks

Answer 1

No, not likely...but STOP smoking!!! It'll ruin your teeth, make you look 20 years older and it causes cancer-take the initiative and put them down for good, you don't even smoke enough to keep up the habit. You could put a downpayment on a car with what you spend on cigs every year!

Answer 2

Chances are that you do not have cancer but you could easily have a throat infection. Smoking will only aggravate any symptoms that you are having as smoke is an irritant. You could have something else, like mono, which can begin with a sore throat that persists. Do see your doctor, drink lots of fluids and try to stop smoking.

Answer 3

Light smoking is 1 or 2 cancer stick per day. 10 is not light smoking. Perhaps your body is telling you something but you are not ready to listen. Like - Stop smoking. Why beside addiction, do you smoke anyway.

Smoking with a throut irritation only makes it worse, regardless of the cause. You shouldd see a Dovtor and get professional opinions. But the best advice you can get, stop the smoking.

Answer 4

Ten cigarettes a day and you call yourself a "light smoker" your only kidding yourself my friend and, you must have a good job to afford those cigarettes.

Stop the smoking for one thing. Then start gargling with a light mixture of : half and half, warm water and Hydrogen peroxide for a few days and see what happens. If it continues see your doctor.
