What Could White Spots On Insides Of The Cheek And On Gum Line Indicate, Have Habit Of Chewing Tobacco?

I've been chewing for about 4 and a half years. I noticed some white spots on in inside of my cheek so I figured it was leukoplakia. I started to rinse with Hydrogen Peroxide and I get this huge tingling sensation. It doesn't hurt, but it is not pleasant. Also before I rinse I have no signs of leukoplakia on my gum line, but after I've rinsed with the peroxide, it leaves a white residue on my gum line. What is happening and should i seek my personal doctor? I've just noticed this today. Should I wait for a couple weeks?
