It seems you have developed a precancerous condition called submucous fibrosis;due to continuous irritation of mucosa by the carcinogenic substances present in your panmasala.its best to avoid its use and visit dentist who will prescribe some medicaments and help maintain proper oral hygiene. REMEMBER PREVENTION IS BETTER THAN NO CURE.
Next Steps
discontinue use of pan masala and visit a dental doctor at an earliest

Please do visit your dentist and give complete history of pan masala and other similar products.
All these products contain carcinogens, and are required to mention this on their packages .
Early and swift intervention can prevent complications. Please do visit your Dentist
