I'm really worried about my recent medical reports that mention something called pleomorphic adenoma. I'm unsure which kind of doctor I should see about this. Do you think surgery is necessary, and which specialist is best for handling this situation?

For plemorphic adenoma, you should consult an Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT) specialist or an Otolaryngologist. Surgery is often recommended for plemorphic adenoma to remove the tumor and prevent any complications. The specialist will assess your specific case and recommend the appropriate treatment plan, which may include surgery to remove the tumor.

I'm really worried because I've had this lump feeling in the back of my throat and mouth for about three months now. I've also noticed some white spots back there. My doctor mentioned it could be pharyngitis, but even after three months of medication, that feeling hasnt gone away. Now I've started having neck and back pain, and there's this weird sweet and sour taste in my mouth. Im feeling pretty confused and scared about all this. Could you give me some advice on what might be going on?

I'm 48 and just found out I have a throat tumor. The doctor near me recommended surgery but I'm worried are there other treatment options I could explore before going under the knife?

Depending on tumor type, radiation or chemo may be options‚Äîget a biopsy and second opinion before deciding.
