I have a large bump at the front top of my gum, it actually extends into my skin at the base of my nose. do you have any idea what it could be?

No: Unfortunately, rashes and dermatitis like conditions are too numerous and cannot really be diagnosed over the computer. If the rash/bump persists, you should get it looked at by a dr. (preferrably a skin specialist [dermatologist]).

Bump: Could be from infection of tooth/teeth and or gums/bone. Could be from trauma, burn, or so many other causes. See your Dentist immediately for differential diagnosis and appropriate treatment.
