In addition, according to the expert, the main reasons for the formation of malignant tumors in the tongue are smoking, frequent burns and injury to the organ.
The oncologist explained that the tongue is often damaged, as people bite it, burn it, rub their teeth, and it is very difficult to diagnose, because the mucous membrane of the tongue changes regularly.
The doctor confirmed that viral lesions are often in the form of papillomas, which look like tumors visually, just forming on the tongue. According to him, this is caused by dysbiosis and other problems of the gastrointestinal tract. At the same time, as the oncologist said, tongue cancer is very difficult to treat and when the first symptoms appear, you should consult a doctor immediately.
“External signs of tongue cancer can be ulcers or a formed tubercle, which a person can notice in the mirror, experts have other signs,” concluded Cheryomushkin.
