I'm a newbie with questions. My husband and chewed tobacco for approx. 25 years. He recently has had trouble with red, raised sores on the floor of his mouth, underneath his tongue. There are several, maybe 4 (?). Over the last week or so, he has experienced pain in this area after eating. He finally went to the Dr. yesterday, and she said it didn't look like anything she could treat, and referred him to a surgeon on 10/18. I'm just looking for any sort of advice anyone here can provide. I'm obviously very worried, as is my husband.

Thank you so much in advance.

Angela
