What Causes Soft Bumps On The Face And Mouth After Using Tobacco?
i started chewing or dipping tobacco and i quit already due to the symptoms i was afraid of i could be getting or minor symptoms, my face by my mouth on both sides have weird allergy like soft fattening kind of like when you get allergies , my teeth are perfectly fine and i have no sores or signs of pre cancerous cells on the inside of the mouth , when i start to think more about it , it gets in my head and feels like I m getting symptoms and when i don t worry about it , it goes away which is just probably a placebo effect but , is this anything to be concerned about ?

Ok... with chewing... there's all the addiction issues of any other nicotine source. This can have odd effects including psychological ones. Except for the cravings (which can last a VERY long time) the other odd symptoms tend to go away in days to weeks.
There's the mouth cancer risk, but if it's monitored it isn't a very big risk.
And if you've quit, that's about it.
Congratulations! Things should be improving prettty soon !
