General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi. The simplest way to become worry-free is to consult a Surgeon , get it checked and most important insist for biopsy. It the result is negative for cancer enjoy life fully (of course without tobacco).
If positive go for a definitive treatment without wasting time as you are already having the ump for 6 months .
