How To Treat Lump On Palate?

Five days I started feeling pain (not so intense) in the area of my hard palate when eating. Tomorrow I noticed a small red lump painful to tongue pressure. The lump is positoned on the posterior left area of hard palate, near the central line of the palate. It is as big as rice. The first two days it was red and now it is starting to have normal colour as the surface arround. But it is still there and I am worried. Since my present anxiety I cannot estaimate if it has changed its size. I only have an impression that it does not grow.
