I was chewing gutkha for almost 6 years and now my mouth opening is stuck to very small size. I can't even open mouth to have a burger. Kindly help me out to increase my mouth opening.

Quit habits strictly. Seems like you have oral submucous fibrosis (osmf). Kindly consult an oral & maxillo facial surgeon in person for further suggestion. We need more investigations with clinical examination to decide upon treatment. You may need conservative or surgical management for mouth opening depending upon the stage of osmf. Advise full mouth opening, ballooning exercise & side to side movement of the jaw. Wrap 25 to 30 ice-cream sticks, make a bundle, put it between upper & lower front teeth for 15 minutes thrice a day increase 1 sticks each day. As for now advice t.sm fibre-30nos, once a day for a month, c. Becosules 5 cap (enriched with vitamin a, vitamin b & vitamin e specifically), for five days in the morning after meals. Advance procedures can be done with laser. You may consult me in person.

Frst of all immediately stop eating gutkha. Secondly go to a dentist he vl prescribe you some medication for muscle spasm and to controll the lesion caused by gutkha .then after sum time he vl show you some mouth opening exercise for normal mouth opening .and it vl happen only after your cheek muscles r normal again. So go to dentist asap.
