Hello lybrate-user, hope you and your family are doing well tobacco chewing is one of the causes of precancerous lesion in india. The problem you are facing is called osmf ,oral submucous fibrosis in which you can't open your mouth. Coming to your point that you left the habit two years ago, but you use to chew tobacco right so ,even if you left the habit ,you can have problems in open your mouth due to your past history of tobacco chewing. I can decide what needs to be done seeing the photo of your mouth, sometimes it can be that you need to do laser or a small surgery and get it removed so that it doesn't become a precancerous lesion and it's good that you left the habit. If you continue to be the same way without chewing tobacco. Even this problem will heal and you are going to be fine. If you want to know more about your problem, please book an online appointment so that I can look into your problem personally.
