Question

I'm really worried about my dad because he's been having regular gastric issues and body pains. I've noticed he usually takes Raja khaini tobacco right after meals, especially since he has breakfast around 10:30 a.m. We've consulted several doctors but haven't found a solution yet. What should we do next?
