Have A Lump Hanging From My Gum Line Near Teeth. Now Blackish In Color. Problem?

I have a lump hanging from my gum line around my top teeth, it's not sore, but its beginning to bother me a bit. It gets to where it get twisted and start turning a blackish color and gets very sore, I was wondering is this something that I should be concerned about and see a dentist immediately about or just let it be?
