A old man having history of tobacco chewing since 15 years complains pain

and difficulty in sollowing.O/E no change in oral mucosa but there is a hard calcified structure present in floor of mouth below the myleohyoid area.no mucosal covering over it.what can be a provisional diagnosis for it ?

Ive read if our bodies cant absorb dead tissue it calcifies around it. if your saying the patient has a hard calcified structure present in floor of mouth below the myleohyoid area. this is probably what it done since he been doing  this since he was 15 years old. the  calcified tissue pushers and stretchers nerves causing pain  be well  Ray
