Hello, Thanks for consulting Chat Doctor, Read your query, as you have bump on the gum this can be Abscess for due to Periodontal problem or due to carious tooth may be formation of Periapical Abscess or this can be Myogenic granuloma also. Don't be worried it is not cancerous condition, but I will advise you to consult oral surgeon and go for visual examination of swelling on gum if needed go for Investigations IOWA X-ray of tooth then go for its proper treatment.  In meantime do warm saline rinses two - three times a day, Do chlorhexidine mouthwash, brush your teeth twice daily. Hope it will help you.  Wishing you good health. Regards
