It can become life-threatening if not detected and treated at the early stages. Oral cancer or mouth cancer is generally grouped into the head and neck category of cancers as the treatment of these cancers are almost similar.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Causes of mouth cancer<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When the mutations cause a change in the cells of the lips or mouth, it leads to mouth cancer. These changes in the DNA of the cells let the abnormal or atypical cells to grow continuously, leading to the formation of a tumour. This tumour may spread to other areas of the head &amp; neck as well as other parts of the body. Oral cancer affects the flat, thin cells (squamous cells) that line the lips and inner part of the mouth. Hence, squamous cell carcinoma is the most common type of oral cancer.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Risk factors of mouth cancer<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Here are some of the risk factors that are involved in the development of mouth or oral cancer:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Excessive alcohol consumption<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Smoking cigarettes, pipes, cigars and snuffs<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Chewing tobacco<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A weak immune system due to malnutrition and other reasons<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sharp teeth which may result in buccal mucosa or tongue irritation and chronic trauma<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Excessive exposure to sunlight which may result in lip cancer<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Poor dental hygiene<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Signs and symptoms of mouth cancer<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Various common signs and symptoms that can be observed in the early stages of mouth or oral cancer are:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Weight loss<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bleeding in the mouth<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Presence of something at the back of throat<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pain in ear<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Loosening of teeth<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Continuous coughing<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Chronic sore throat and hoarseness in voice<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Occurrence of red, white or dotted patches in the mouth<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Feeling of numbness and pain in any part of the mouth, face or neck<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thickening or swelling in any part of the mouth<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Occurrence of hard and rough spots and crusts on the gums, lips and other parts of the mouth<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Difficulty in swallowing<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Stages of mouth cancer<\/h2>\n<p><b>Stage 0: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The development of abnormal cells in the lining of the oral cavity or lips is called stage zero of mouth cancer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Stage 1: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this stage, the tumour is less than 2 cm in size and may not spread to the lymph nodes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Stage 2: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In stage 2, the cancer cells have grown in size from 2-4 cm but have not spread to the lymph nodes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Stage 3: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this stage, the cancer cells have grown larger than 4 cm and start affecting the lymph nodes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Stage 4: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With the advancement in the level of mouth cancer, stage 4 tumours may differ in size and may affect various parts of the head and neck such as:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jaws and other organs of the oral cavity<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Single or multiple lymph nodes<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Distant body parts like lungs<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Treatment of mouth cancer<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The treatment of oral cancer completely depends upon the stage and location of cancer.
