Hello. I recently found a small lump on my jawbone. It seems to be 2 lumps grouped together side by side on the right side of my lower jaw more towrads my chin. Nothing is visible from inside my mouth whatsoever. I'm a bit of a worry wort. I'm 18 years old. No cancer in my family but i do chew tobacco. Any suggestions on this matter would be wonderful.

Hi Robman

Welcome to the forum. If you search this forum, you will find a similar entry, recently from somebody experiencing similar problems. The general replies to that question were that it's probably not cancer, that maybe chewing tobacco isn't helping anything and that if you are really worried, get off your backside and make an appointment with a doctor as soon as possible. He will be able to give you a more professional answer and if necessary to put you in touch with the proper specialists. The sooner any problem is identified, the quicker a solution may be found.
Don't worry until you have a real reason to!

Kind regards - Pete
