Osmf is a premalignant condition and can be sometimes malignant too!! Depending on the photo which you have attached the grading should be of Grade 2 where conservative options like intralesional injection along with habit cessation are done . Fibrotomy can also be considered as viable option
Next Steps
Stop the habit at once and consult a doctor who knows about osmf
