Hi,
Yes, the symptoms that you have described can be serious. In my opinion, you should get your mouth checked by a doctor as it may be the initial stage of oral cancer, which is quite common in people who chew tobacco. If diagnosed early, it can be treated. The symptoms may also be due to submucosal fibrosis. You should also quit tobacco as soon as possible.
Best wishes.
