Oral cancer can affect parts of your mouth such as the lips, teeth, gums, and the roof of the mouth. It can be life-threatening if not treated early and the options include surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and targeted drug therapy. You may undergo one type of treatment or you may need to have a combination of treatments, depending on what stage your cancer is at and the location, your general health, and personal preferences.
Recovery from oral cancer will take a significant amount of time and you will need to rest completely for 4 weeks, but you should be able to go back to work within 6 to 8 weeks.
The success rate for oral cancer treatment depends on how early the patient gets treated. Those who are treated early can have over 83% survival rates. Surgery carries risks of infection, bleeding, as well as changing the way you speak eat and swallow. Therapy also has side effects, such as mouth ulcers, stiff jaw, loss of appetite, loss of taste, hair loss, diarrhea, and headache.
