write down the symptoms and reason of submucous fibrosis.
Answers
Oral submucous fibrosis is a chronic, complex, premalignant (1% transformation risk) condition of the oral cavity, characterized by juxta-epithelial inflammatory reaction and progressive fibrosis of the submucosal tissues (the lamina propria and deeper connective tissues). As the disease progresses, the jaws become rigid to the point that the person is unable to open the mouth.[1][2] The condition is remotely linked to oral cancers and is associated with areca nut or betel quid chewing, a habit similar to tobacco chewing, is practiced predominantly in Southeast Asia and India, dating back thousands of years.
Symptoms of oral submucous fibrosis include the following : Progressive inability to open the mouth (trismus) due to oral fibrosis and scarring. Oral pain and a burning sensation upon consumption of spicy foodstuffs.
Increased salivation.
