Starting chewing tobacco pouches 1 month ago. roughly 2 cans.have a painful ulcer on my lip. if it heals, should i be concerned?

"If"?: First, don't wait to see if this heals. Have an oral surgeon have a look at this ulcer to elucidate diagnosis. Second, stop the chewing tobacco, as this can cause oral cancers.
