Swallowing pain on one side of the throat with wheezing, chest pain is throat cancer?

Ask ‌
Hello doctor, I have a sore throat on one side and it is painful to swallow, wheezing and accompanied by pain in the right chest for a long time. I had an endoscopy, the doctor said there was pus in the right throat, but taking the medicine did not go away. Please advise me if I can swallow pain on one side of my throat with wheezing and chest pain, is it a symptom of nasopharyngeal cancer?

Hello! Her symptoms of painful swallowing on one side suggest many diseases of tonsillitis, pharyngitis. Do not think about many nasopharyngeal pathologies. I guess there may be a lack of understanding of your condition. If possible, please go to the Vinmec Health System facilities to be examined and receive specific advice from ENT doctors.
