Blockage: Could be blocked salivary gland, among many possibilities. Make an appointment w an oral surgeon for examination, possible biopsy, and treatment if any is indicated.

Visit your DDS: Any unusual bump anywhere inside your mouth that is not healing after 10 days needs to be checked out. See your dentist for evaluation and treatment if needed.
