Anyone can get laryngeal cancer, but you might be more at risk if you:

* are over the age of 40
* are a man, especially if you are Black
* have a brother, sister, parent or child who has had laryngeal cancer
* have certain conditions, such as acid reflux or gastro-oesophageal reflux disease, or have had radiotherapy treatment to your neck
Many laryngeal cancers are linked to lifestyle. For example, you’re more likely to get it if you smoke or drink too much alcohol.

Don’t ignore the symptoms
