HPV (human papillomavirus) is well known as the virus that causes cervical cancer. However, HPV can cause head and neck cancer (cancer that develops in the head and neck area), oropharyngeal cancer, tonsil cancer, and anal and genital warts not only in women but also in men. The HPV vaccine can also help protect men. If you have HPV-related symptoms or are considering vaccination, please consult an otolaryngology (ENT) specialist.2026-06-26

Tongue cancer is a malignant tumor that develops in the tongue and accounts for about 10 to 15% of all head and neck cancers. Because early symptoms resemble those of stomatitis (mouth sores), it is often left untreated and found late. Treatment outcomes tend to be better when the cancer is detected early, so if you have a sore on the tongue that does not heal or a lump you can feel, please consult a medical specialist without delay.2026-06-26
