Brief Answer:
May be mucous cyst.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

I have gone through your query and here is my advice.

As per your history, it may be mucous cyst. It usually causes due to cheek biting or poor dental hygiene.

Usually it resolves on their own in one to 2 weeks. Don't try to open it or remove it. You can apply zytee gel(choline salicylate) in case of open sore. In case of pain, take tablet acetaminophen.

Still, Please let me know do you have dental infection, sharp tooth, tobacco addiction, lump is painful or painless?

In that case you may require biopsy of the lump after detailed medical examination and physician's opinion. Along with that maintain proper dental hygiene. Avoid hot and spicy foods. Avoid smoking if you have it.

Hope I have answered your query and let me know if I can assist you further... Thank you.
