Due to chronic consumption and based on your symptoms go for FNAC and please visit ENT and get yourself checked

Given the symptoms you have mentioned, especially considering your history of tobacco and alcohol use, it is very important to see a medical professional as soon as possible. The enlargement of lymph nodes, tongue discoloration, cheek bleeding, and ear pain are concerning symptoms that require an urgent consultation with an oral surgeon or ENT specialist to rule out any serious conditions, including cancer.

In the meantime, adopting some supportive Ayurvedic practices can help you manage the symptoms while you seek professional evaluation. Since tobacco and alcohol can worsen Pitta dosha, try to reduce Pitta-aggravating factors in your diet. Avoid spicy, fried, and fermented foods, as well as caffeine and red meat, which can heat up the body further. Instead, consume cooling foods like cucumbers, melons, and leafy greens to help balance Pitta. Drink coconut water; it’s known for its cooling and soothing properties.

In Ayurveda, the digestive fire or Agni is crucial for overall health. Strengthening your Agni can support your body’s natural healing processes. Chew a small piece of fresh ginger with a dash of rock salt about half an hour before meals to kindle digestive fire without overheating your system.

For the sore and bleeding mouth, try an Ayurvedic practice of oil pulling. Swish a tablespoon of organic sesame or coconut oil in your mouth for about 10-15 minutes and then spit it out. It’s traditionally believed to draw out toxins and help maintain oral health. Do this daily if possible.

Avoid smoking and alcohol completely; they deplete the Ojas (vital energy), weakening the immune system and increasing inflammation and irritation in the body. After professional diagnosis, a tailored Panchakarma detox program could be of benefit, but only under the guidance of a certified Ayurvedic practitioner.

Keep stress management as a priority; meditation and deep breathing exercises can help balance the mind and body, reducing stress-related Pitta aggravation. Don’t delay in seeking medical attention—it’s crucial to address these symptoms promptly with a healthcare provider.

HELLO AMIYA RANJAN,

You are experiencing pain in the cheeks, tongue discolouration, ear pain, bleeding from the cheeks, ad enlarged lymph nodes(1cm)- along with long term history(14 years)of tobacco and alcohol use. These symptoms can be very serious and possibly suggest early signs of oral cancer especially considering your habits

RED FLAG SYMPTOMS THAT NEED IMMEDIATE ATTENTION -tongue discolouration and irritation -bleeding from cheeks -persistent ear and facial pain -enlarged lymph nodes(especially if hard or immobile) -history of tobacco and alcohol use-major risk factor

WHAT TO DO IMMEDIATELY

1)CONSULT AN ENT SPECIALIST(otorhinolaryngologist) or and oncologist as soon as possible -request a complete oral examination and biopsy od suspicious area

2)QUIT TOBACOO AND ALCOHOL IMMEDIATELY -both are strong carcinogens and can worsen the situation -even if this is not cancer now, continuing them could quickly lead to iy

3)GET A FINE NEEDLE ASPIRATION CYTOLOGY FOR THE LYMPH NODE -this helps detect infection or malignancy

These symptoms should not be managed with home remedies or local painkiller without knowing the exact cause.Delaying a medical evaluation can allow potentially serious disease to advance

THIS may be early cancer or precancerous condition. DON’T WAIT, please consult a doctor within 1-2 days and stop all addictions immediately. The earlier is detected the more easily it can be treated.
