Dear you are already suffering from tobacco chewing hazard.First one is submucus fibrosis in which due to your temporal joint stiffness you are not able to open your mouth fully.and second is leuckoplakia means whitening of oral mucosa which might be a precancerous lesion.It is really a good decision to quit gutkha.But please consult ENT surgeon soon, for your problem workup and treatment.
