O HPV também pode causar câncer de garganta — e os casos estão aumentando | Dr. Evandro Lima

In this episode of Zumicast with Dr. Evandro Lima, a head and neck surgeon, we discuss thyroid issues, nodules, warning signs, and when to see a specialist. In this segment, Dr. Evandro explains how patient profiles have changed over the years: cancers linked to tobacco and alcohol—such as tongue and mouth cancers—have decreased significantly, a result of decades of awareness campaigns. However, conversely, cases of oropharyngeal cancer have begun to increase. Studying this phenomenon, medicine discovered the culprit: HPV. Therefore, prevention goes beyond what many people imagine: HPV vaccination and sexual health prevention also protect your throat. Your health tells a story.
