Harry: “I am fine doctor. Just that I have noticed a small red and
white area on my cheek that feels kind of weird and is there for
the last 5 weeks”.
Dentist: “Well that looks big and abnormal. Do you still chew
those tobacco products?”
Harry: “Yes I do, but I have reduced the number to 4 times a day.
I keep them right next to the red area to relieve the pain
sometimes”.
