So how has your mouth been feeling of late? Sounds a strange question because if you have any problems, you’d get them checked out right? Well make sure you do at the first sign of things like ulcers, sore throats or lumps, because these are attributed to the onset of oral cancer and you should know that this is on the increase in south east London. Any sign of a problem, then get down to the dentists for a thorough check-up and don’t take no for an answer either, because this is your life we are talking about and an early diagnosis of the disease is the key to beating it. You should demand a series of tests if you are worried that will ascertain any signs of the disease, and, at what level it has reached. If the tests are positive, then this will govern the type of treatment you will need. Yes, it’s a very traumatic period and can put the fear of life into you and so you should pull out all the stops you can and get everyone you can on your side as back-up, from medical support to that of your friends and family. Take heart from the fact that the positive results from treatments in the area have grown, but you may also like to take a good hard look at your lifestyle afterwards to stop the chances of the disease coming back, which was probably the reason you found yourself in this position in the first place.
