Hello, Welcome Thanks for consulting HCM,

I have gone through your query, as you have habot of chewing tobacco since one year now you have pain in opening mouth it can be due formation of fibrous bands due to keratinization .

Firstly you should quit you chewing habit .

Apply ointment on buccal mucosa Triamicinolone acetonide twice daily for 5days

Take one capsule Vitamin A once daily for 5 days

Consult dentist for Oral examination.
Hope this will help you.
