White painful patches in mouth

2018-01-18 18:53:34
I have been using tobacco products from 7-8 years. I have developed white patches in my jaw below tongue and white scaly skin around there. Also the tongue has lost upper layer from both sides. I am worried as if is it cancerous ? Can it be cured ? I have vowed not to smoke or chew pan masala ever again.
