Hi Brendan,

Sorry to hear you're in such pain. Permanently stopping using chewing tobacco (and any smoking paraphernalia) is a good way to improve overall health. So well done for stopping.
It's best to see a specialist ENT to see why you're in pain. There are so many reasons as to why you have pain, not necessarily OC. Get yourself checked ASAP to ease your mind.
