Since how many days this lesion had been there ? It doesn’t look like a an ulcer or a pre cancerous lesion . But need you to keep it on close watch. If any change in size or ulceration develop you need to review . Stop use of tobacco and related pan products . You can consult me if you wish to discuss regarding any other symptoms or difficulties you are having .
