How long does it take HPV to cause Oral cancer?

Gave my bf a bj and I got this sensation as if I got something stuck in my throat for almost two weeks now. Is it oral/throat cancer?

No, it's not likely to be cancer. It takes several months to several years for HPV to develop into cancer.

There is something called globus pharyngeus that may be what you're experiencing - https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/318633.php. That's from anxiety, but you should see your doctor to rule out anything with a physical cause, like GERD/acid reflux, or a digestive disorder.
