Need to examine clinically. Rule out systemic conditions. If required, need to perform incisional biopsy. Depending on stage of OSMF(If this is the diagnosis) go for injections plus medications for better cure

Is there any history of oral consumption of tobacco products? And is there difficulty in opening mouth due to stiffening of cheek? If not so, it could be some other condition also.. OSMF could be just a possible diagnosis. Else, burning feeling of cheeks can be due to multiple causes.
Next Steps
Meet specialist in Oral Medicine and Radiology for correct diagnosis. Once diagnosis is confirmed, treatment steps will follow.
