[|Human|] Hi, I ve been chewing tobacco for probably about a year and a half now. And I do drink a fair bit, maybe twice a month. And I ve been getting cankers in my mouth a lot but they heal up and disappear, so i m just worried about getting oral cancer or something? how likely is that?
[|AI|]  Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query. The ulcers what you are getting repeatedly are nothing but recurrent authors ulcers, these can come secondary to stress or nutritional deficiency. Nothing to be panic, lead a stress-free life, take proper nutritious diet. If I am your treating doctor, I would have suggested you to take topical anesthetic and analgesics like 2%lignocaine and choline salicylate gel (Anabel gel) apply 3-4 times daily before food and topical steroid like triamcinolone acetone 0.1% 4-5times daily after food. Do saline gargling. If the lesion does not heal in 5-7 days then consult an oral physician and get it examined. Regarding you tobacco chewing habit, when you know it can cause cancer, you better quit it gradually. Otherwise, once the changes occurs in the mucosa its irreversible. So better quit it. I hope my answer will help you, take care.
