Hello sir,
As I see your pic.. it's not clear what exactly is the problem.. even if this lesion is because of smoking. Do not worry as they can revert back once u quit ur smoking..
Pls visit your dentist for a consultation as they will be able to see it clinically and come to a diagnosis..
Any lesion which doesn't regress for more than two weeks always has to be subjected to the experts opinion..
Thank u

Hello there, that's good that you do not chew tobacco, but the details and the picture that you have sent, seems concern full condition and that could be the result of smoking, though not often. You must know that this particular medical condition is still reversible if you quit smoking completely, flip to some healthy diet and exercise. Be stress free and have patience.
Next Steps
You should see a Dentist(as soon as possible ) for counselling and some oral medicine that may include vitamins/minerals and oral gel for local application.
