M24: Head and neck screening: look, feel, record, then re-check or refer

Work the soft-tissue exam from the first look at the face to the next step: look at the face and neck, feel the lymph nodes of the head and neck, look and feel inside the mouth from the cheeks to the floor of the mouth, record what you find, then follow up a seemingly innocuous lesion or send a persistent or suspicious one for biopsy or to a specialist.
