Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
She needs further investigation from ENT doctor because cancer is a cause of chronic pharyngitis. The HPV pharyngitis, smoking and laryngopharyngeal reflux can lead to pharyngitis. Further endoscopy examination is needed.
Hope I have answered the question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
