Dipped for a long time probably close to 10 years off and on and I’m only 25 but was referred to a oral surgeon today and get seen the 24th for a lump on the floor of my mouth and I’m freaking out inside without letting my 8 month pregnant wife know how bad. Feels like the floor of my mouth was swollen for close to a mouth and the swelling when down a tad but there’s still what feels like soft gravel on the front floor of my mouth. I’m just really hoping others who have had this can tell me if I might be blowing this all out of proportion. So sorry to bother everyone here, but I hope the best for you all and I’ll keep you guys in my prayers

hugs Jesse. I"m a caregiver. I wish they would let people realize the possible consequences of chew. I was in dentistry so I warned my husband but he didn't think it would happen to him. Keep us updated. Don't dispare and take one day at a time.

he is cancer free. he had a biopsy a week or so ago as they thought he had more cancer but so far, so good. he is doing nothing to stay healthy or get healthier though as he thinks that is voodoo. frustrates me but it's his body and his life.
