Dangerous Effects Of Oral S*x By Doctor Hisham Mehanna

The United States (U.S) and the United Kingdom (UK) are suffering a throat cancer ‘epidemic’ — and experts have pointed to oral s*x as the culprit.

Dr. Hisham Mehanna, from the UK’s University of Birmingham, said 70 per cent of cases of throat cancer are caused by human papillomavirus (HPV), a normally harmless virus that is spread s*xually and has been linked to multiple forms of cancers.
HPV is the most common s*xually transmitted infection (STI).
Many people with HPV don’t develop any symptoms but can still infect others through s*xual contact.
Symptoms may include warts on the genitals or surrounding skin.
Mehanna said people with multiple oral s*x partners have an up to nine-fold increased risk of throat cancer, the ‘Mailonline’ reported.
There is a vaccine for HPV, but only 54 per cent of Americans have received it — far below the 80 per cent figure believed to be a threshold for population safety.
Mehanna said: “Over the past two decades, there has been a rapid increase in throat cancer in the west, to the extent that some have called it an epidemic.
“This has been due to a large rise in a specific type of throat cancer called oropharyngeal cancer.
” Oropharyngeal cancer is the most common type of throat cancer. It appears in the tonsils and back of the throat
