The treatment of mouth cancer depends on the site and Stage of the cancer. I usually ask for an imaging CT scan or MRI, sometimes only ultrasound) to know the extent of the disease and nodal spread. If advanced stage, then I also ask for a PET CT scan. If early stage, then surgery. If advanced, may need surgery followed by chemoradiation or chemotherapy followed by surgery and Chemoradiation. If very advanced stage, then only CTRT or palliative.

Wisdom teeth usually make their appearance between the ages of 17 and 21, though it's possible for them to push through earlier or later. Referred to as your "third molars," these four teeth begin to push through the skin like any other tooth, which can cause pain. However, wisdom teeth are much more likely to grow in at an incorrect angle – even sideways – causing impaction that can radiate this pain to the teeth in front of it. Kindly get it extracted as soon as possible.

The thick mucosal folds in the stomach as noted in the endoscopy report could indicate inflammation or a reaction to chemotherapy. It's important for your father to continue his follow-up with me so that I can provide a detailed interpretation and guide further treatment.

It's good that you are monitoring changes in your oral health. While some ulcer-like growths can be benign, it's important to be cautious, especially if there are changes in size or appearance. Home remedies such as rinsing with salt water or applying honey can offer relief and might help with minor oral issues. However, given the fluctuating size of the growth, I recommend visiting a healthcare professional for a proper diagnosis. It's essential to rule out any serious conditions.
