Hi,The inside right cheek of my mouth does not feel smooth as the left cheek, something like a very fine sandpaper feeling. I looked with a flashlight and it looks different than the left side. Gray cast rather than pink like the left side. It is hard to see close because of the limitations of my glasses and the mirror. Do you have any ideas? What kind of doctor would I make an appointment with. Would it be a dentist, GP, or something else?
Hello. Thank you for consulting Chat Doctor. You need to consult dentist for diagnosis of this lesion. According to symptoms you mentioned you can have leukoplakia/keratitis / lichen planes/ oral keratinizing candidiasis. I need to know your tobacco habits. I also need to know your gender and mental status either you are under any stress ? I also need to know are you taking any medicine regularly specially steroids ?perfectly the lesion can be diagnosed with microscopic examination of the infected tissues.
