My brother finished treatment in May this year for cancer of  

Oropharynx, tonsil/ tongue base, left, SCC P16 + ve, cT4 cN1. He received the all clear in September. This weekend he ended up at casualty with a very swollen throat and they diagnosed an infection, prescribing antibiotics. Should he go back to his consultant for advice?
