Nationwide campaign in November

The examinations are meant to help detect changes that may be a sign of cancer before they develop into a serious disease (Nowotwory jamy ustnej: Rusza Akcja Niebieskie Usta 2026.

Who can take part and how to sign up

People living in the cities covered by the campaign can take part in the examinations. Dates and venues are given on the campaign map, and sign-ups are made by phone, so a single call is enough to book an appointment.

Symptoms to watch for

The organizers point out that it is worth consulting a doctor about any change in the oral cavity that does not go away within a few weeks. These include white or red patches, ulcers, and unexplained painful lumps. Such changes in the oral cavity should be reported to a doctor without delay.

Educational meetings

The campaign also includes educational meetings and practical advice on caring for oral health. They are meant to explain how to check the mucous membrane yourself and when to seek help from a specialist.
