Salivary Gland Cancer

Salivary glands are located just beneath your tongue and are the producers of saliva or “spit” inside your mouth. Though cancer of the salivary glands is rare it does happen occasionally and symptoms include a sensation of a lump, difficulty swallowing, pain at or near the glands, it is also important to consider that not all cases of cancer have symptoms and there may be nothing noticeably wrong in your day-to-day life.
