Definitely u should go for biopsy and ur father may need tracheostomy (making alternate passage in the neck for breathing) and that is life saving procedure.Follow advise given to u by ur doctor.

The doctor is right. If there's a growth in the throat ,you must do a biopsy as soon as possible. He may need a CT/MRI as well.
