Hi lybrate-user. Your symptoms are pointing more towards pharyngitis. Throat cancer presentation is not so. Generally it is painless and they will not have any redness which again is a sign of inflammation (infection. So get treated by your local ent surgeon with antibiotics and betadine gargling and also take antacids and avoid oily and soar food. You will be fine and generally at your age and if you are not a smoker or tobacco chewer we do not expect you to have throat cancer.

And take proper check up at regular intervals.
As one time check up does not exclude it.
Also take homoeopathic treatment.
It can remove the tendency and save you from the cancer.
