Hello and thank you for your question XXXXXXX Hope I can be of help for you today.

Through reading your query I would like to help you with this question. Through the picture that you report to us it is located at the side of your cheek biting. Do you have oral pain? Any difficult swallowing? How long do you have this? Do you have any history of smoking? Cheek biting is presented with whitish, irregular plaques of the oral mucosa of varying size and with fading margins. Do you usually cheek bite? Let me know more of your history.

I hope that can help you, and please let me know if you have any clarification or question about that, and I would be welcome to discuss it with you further. I Hope you have good health.
