smoking and oral cancer
Posted: 06-11-08 07:14am

I am a 20 year old male and have been smoking for 7 months now.I noticed a pale white patch on the roof of my mouth today.When i drank water i felt a sharp pain down my throat as if something was stuck.I went to my doctor who dismissed it as cancer.

,i took some pictures of my mouth and pls advice! Oh dear i am so worried right now.

For the first picture: At the back of my throat,there seem to be small red spots.anything unsual about those?

For the second picture:Above my finger,i have a small red pimple like thing.

I can’t notice anything unusual, but the photos you provided are of a low-quality. I think you can trust your doctor and reject cancer as a possible diagnosis...but if you'd like a second opinion, you might see an ENT specialist.
