Hard to say...: Bumps and lesions of the oral cavity need to be visualized to be diagnosed. How long has it been there? What is the condition of your wisdom tooth? Best to have it examined locally by your dentist..

Unlikely: Unlikely. A bump in that area is abnormal. See an oral surgeon for exam/recommendations.

"Bump" is not a diagnosis. Any oral lesion that is not completely gone in 2 weeks mandates evaluation. Please see your Dentist now, or see a wisdom tooth expert, an Oral Surgeon.
