A member asked:
Sudden right nostril pain since yesterday, no improvement. no injures, could it be cancer???
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No.: Sudden pain is almost never the first symptom of cancer. You are too young for cancer to be likely at all. If you have pain that does not improve, see a doc and find out the real reason. It will, almost certainly, not be cancer.
