Lump on my gum

- I woke up Saturday morning (29th) and found that I had a lump on my gum! This appeared overnight.
- It doesn't hurt unless I press it with my finger
- Its located on the top right of my mouth, above my teeth
- its smooth and about the size of a pea
Please only reply with legitimate responses, I am really concerned and want to know....i'm going to the doctors for an injection tomorrow, so will mention it to them then
Can't remember the name for them, but lumps on the gum aren't all that uncommon. It should go down within a few days. If it doesn't, that's when you should worry, but for now I'm more inclined to say that it's something harmless.
It's an ulcer, don't panic.
