Brief Answer:
Seems like eruption cyst.

Detailed Answer:
Hi..
Welcome to Healthcare Magic..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concern..

As per the explanation, symptoms, image attached and considering the age of the patient it seems like an Eruption cyst or an Eruption hematoma and is formed when the tooth under it is in erupting stage and there is a formation of a fluid filled bubble over the gums or soft tissue above the tooth and in your case it seems to be erupting permanent second molar..
It is a harmless condition and gets resolved on its own once the tooth erupts..
As the tooth progresses its eruption the cyst ruptures and gradually resolves..
But still I would suggest you to get a clinical evaluation and an x-ray done of the region by a Pedodontist to further confirm the diagnosis..

Any further queries are welcome..

Wishing your child a good health..

Thanks and regards.
