I like how "A lump in your neck" isn't preceded by "have a" like the rest of them. It's just a lump in your neck.

I like ignoring the bullets and just reading the rest of the text. "You may be at risk for throat cancer if you get checked now."

Can't get diagnosed with cancer if you never get checked!

It's like when I hear "Back in the days there was no cancer and no mental disorders". Like yeah, people just died randomly and behaved weird and were called possessed and stuff

Not sure if the person who made this poster was being pedantic, or if it was intended to make people think, and realize that it could happen to anyone.

To paraphrase the Alien tagline: at the oncologist's office, no one wants to hear you scream.

(As opposed to most places, where people love it)

They probably forgot to add the word ‘sore’ to throat. Happens to me quite often ;)

Have trouble swallowing food and lump in neck might be the same issue

Technically correct.

4 points just don't look enough. What else could we write?

Thankfully I have neither!

I have a mouth and I must screen.
