The ailment of Shareef took a serious turn after the symptoms of the Cancer started manifesting itself around the neck region..under his throat.

According to research, larynx cancer is common among old people, mostly 45yrs and above, Drinking Alcohol and smoking Indian hemp is one of the main causes of Larynx cancer. 

According to Research, Smoking tobacco and drinking a lot of alcohol are the main risk factors for larynx cancer in the western world. People who drink Alcohol and smoke are at a higher risk of developing larynx cancer.

There is a combined risk if a person smoke and drink a lot. It’s greater than the risk of just smoking or just drinking.

Heavy drinking and smoking is particularly linked to cancer above the vocal cords and the area around the vocal cords (the glottis).

Alcohol and cigarettes contain chemicals that increase the risk of cancer. The alcohol passes over the top of the larynx (the epiglottis) as the person swallows. When one smoke, the smoke passes through the larynx on its way to your lungs.
