Actually your picture is not clear enough to diagnose. Please consult a oramedicine and Radiologist to confirm the diagnosis. If it is leukoplakia nothing to worry. Stoping your habit of smoking and tobacco chewing is very important. Have to rule out any malignancy (cancer) in the lesion by biopsy.
Next Steps
Stop the habit if you have smoking or tobacco chewing
Health Tips
Take antioxidants T. A-Z once daily for 2 -3 months.
