Mouth Cancer Treatment
Mouth cancer, also known as oral cancer, can develop in any area inside the mouth, including the inner cheeks, gums, and lips. It is caused by the uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells in the buccal cavity. In India, mouth cancer is one of the most common types of cancer. It can affect various parts of the oral cavity, such as the lips, tongue, gums, soft and hard palates, floor of the mouth, throat, and sinuses. Men are generally more likely to develop this condition than women.
Types of Mouth Cancer
There are several different types of oral cancer, and they vary in terms of severity and growth rate. Some of the most common types include:
-
Tongue Cancer: This is a rare type of mouth cancer, often caused by squamous cell carcinoma. -
Lip Cancer: This typically develops on the lower lip. One of the early signs is a non-healing sore or lesion.
-
Gum Cancer: This type of cancer grows moderately and affects the gums.
-
Salivary Gland Cancer: Salivary gland cancer is relatively uncommon and typically affects the major salivary glands.
-
Tonsil Cancer: This cancer originates in the cells of the tonsils.
-
Palate Cancer: This type affects the soft palate (the upper portion of the mouth). It starts in the cells of the soft palate.
Treatment of Mouth Cancer
The treatment for mouth cancer depends on its type, stage, and the patient's general health. Often, a combination of treatments is required to effectively combat the disease:
-
Chemotherapy: Chemotherapy uses powerful drugs to target and kill cancer cells by damaging their DNA. While effective, chemotherapy can also damage healthy tissues, causing side effects such as hair loss, nausea, and fatigue.
-
Surgery: Surgery involves the removal of the tumor and, if necessary, surrounding tissues such as lymph nodes, part of the tongue, or jawbone.
-
Radiation Therapy: This treatment uses high-energy X-rays or radiation particles to damage the DNA of cancer cells, preventing them from multiplying.
-
Hyperthermia Therapy: A newer approach that involves heating the cancerous area to eliminate cancer cells.
The cost of mouth cancer treatment in India is relatively affordable compared to many other countries. On average, the cost for mouth cancer treatment starts around $3000 USD , and the success rate for treatment is 70-80% . The average hospital stay for treatment is about 15-20 days, with additional recovery time of 14-21 days. The hospital provides post-operative care guidelines to ensure a smooth recovery.
