Who’s At Risk for Head and Neck Cancer

Who’s At Risk for Head and Neck Cancer

People who use both tobacco and alcohol are at greater risk of developing certain head and neck cancers, while it is the most common risk factor, it isn’t the only one. “Often times these cancers aren’t in people that smoke. So we kind of investigated why are these people getting these cancers? And the link was HPV,” says Dr. Tony Anfuso, a surgical head and neck oncologist on the medical staff of Lee Memorial Health System. Human papillomavirus – or HPV – is linked to head and neck cancer. A new study reveals that HPV raises the chances someone will get head and neck cancer by at least sevenfold. Some good news is that these HPV-linked oral cancers seem to respond better to treatment. “As we’ve continued to study this, we’ve found these patients do get this cancer that their survival is better and treatment seems to work better in them for whatever reason,” says Dr. Anfuso. Also new is that younger people are now getting head and neck cancers. “Nowadays they’re 40s, some 30s, rarely less than that, but mostly 40s -50s and some 60s,” says Dr. Anfuso Finding cancer in younger people is more of an uphill battle; they are typically healthier and less likely to seek attention for minor changes. With no clinical screening test, it’s important to give any symptoms a head’s up. “Pain in the throat, sore throat, difficulty swallowing that does not go away after two or three weeks, pain in the ear that is unexplained, lumps in the neck; adults are not supposed to have lumps in their neck,” explains Dr. Anfuso. Treatments for head and neck cancer include surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy and many of these cancers can be cured, especially if they are found early.

Sleep Apnea

Sleep Apnea

To license this video for patient education, content marketing or broadcast, visit: https://healthcare.nucleusmedicalmedia.com/contact-nucleus Reference: ANH13095 If you have obstructive sleep apnea, your breathing pauses for brief periods while you're asleep. Normally when you breathe in, air flows in through your mouth and nose and down your throat, also called the pharynx. Air then slows down your windpipe, or trachea, spreading through a tree-like structure of smaller tubes into your lungs. Each time you breathe in, negative suction pressure pulls the soft tissues in your mouth and pharynx inward. The muscles in your pharynx respond by pulling the soft tissues outward again, which keeps your airway open. When you sleep, it's normal for the muscles in your mouth, tongue, and pharynx to relax slightly, but not enough to block your airway. If you have obstructive sleep apnea, the muscles of your mouth and pharynx may relax too much. Your tongue drops onto the soft tissue in the roof of your mouth, pressing it against the back of your throat. This completely blocks the flow of air into your lungs. The lack of oxygen in your lungs wakes you up. You may gasp for air to reestablish air flow before falling asleep again. The cycle of apnea and waking up may happen many times at night, preventing restful sleep. Factors that may contribute to obstructive sleep apnea include obesity, because more fat may be present in the walls of the pharynx, a small or receding jaw with a narrowed airway, loss of muscle tone in your pharynx due to aging, and swollen tonsils. Common symptoms of obstructive sleep apnea are snoring, morning headaches, chronic daytime sleepiness, fatigue, irritability, and impaired concentration. Left untreated, obstructive sleep apnea may lead to complications, such as high blood pressure, heart disease, irregular heart beats, called arrhythmias, stroke, and diabetes. Your doctor may recommend lifestyle changes to treat obstructive sleep apnea, including losing weight, sleeping on your side, not smoking, and avoiding substances that can make you sleepy, such as alcohol and sedatives. For mild or moderate obstructive sleep apnea, an oral appliance may keep your airway open. This device works by pulling your jaw forward and moving both your tongue and the roof of your mouth away from the back of your throat. The most common and effective treatment for obstructive sleep apnea is a continuous positive airway pressure or CPAP machine. This machine pumps air through a tube into a mask that fits over your nose or both your nose and mouth. The mild air pressure of the CPAP machine helps keep your airway open, enabling you to get a deep, restful sleep. #SleepApnea #Snoring #CPAP
