How To Treat Level One Cancer?
I had a biopsy on the roof of mouth and had a small bump removed and some tissue taken behind it. It came back that the bump wAs pre-canserous and the tissue was considered on a level one . How can I proceed at this point ? I was told to return in 4 months to have it looked at. I am worried at this time.

Hi.
As per the information provide by you, the lesion was precancerous and has been completely removed. If no malignancy has been found in the sample, the treatment is already done. As of now, you must leave any smoking/tobacco chewing/ alcohol habits, have healthy natural diet and relax yourself. Being vigilant and monitoring your oral cavity is a must. Be regular on your follow ups. That's all that is needed at this point.
