Pharyngeal Cancer, also known as Pharynx Cancer, is a type of head and neck cancer that develops in the pharynx — the hollow tube that runs from behind the nose to the top of the esophagus and windpipe. It includes three regions: nasopharynx, oropharynx, and hypopharynx. Common risk factors include tobacco use, alcohol consumption, and HPV infection. Symptoms may include sore throat, difficulty swallowing, ear pain, or a lump in the neck. Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial, as pharyngeal cancer can spread rapidly. Treatment may involve surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy, depending on the stage and location.
