Suggest Treatment For Sore Patch On Tongue Due To Use Of Tobacco
Hello,
I'm a smokeless tobacco user for 3 years - my quit schedule starts next month, using medicine, etc. However, I just noticed a sore patch on my tongue. It's a small flap - no bigger than an average sized mole - and has a mucus like yellow tint to it.

Hi.. i have gone through what you have mentioned in question. I would suggest you to visit a surgeon and get the sore path examined. The surgeon may need to take a biopsy sample to rule out possibility of any malignancy.
