Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
As far as the cancer in a patient is concerned, it takes more than a year for a cancer to occur from a precancerous lesion. It means there will be formation of some red or white lesions prior to cancer formation. So nothing to be panic, you need to quit the habit of smoking and you need to consult a oral physician and get it evaluated.
I hope I have answered your query, take care.
