I'm 40 Years Old And A Couple Nights Ago I

I'm 40 years old and a couple nights ago I discovered a lump on my left anterior tonsillar pillar. At first I thought it was a random water-filled cyst like others I've gotten in the past after eating hot foods, but upon further examination, it appears to be a a solid hard mass. It is not painful, but I can feel it rubbing against the side of the back of my tongue.

After googling, the only thing I'm able to find is results for cancer. I'm terrified because I know my wife did test positive for precancerous cells from HPV a year after we started dating 9 years ago, and it took her 2 years to clear it, meaning she likely acquired it from me. I am also a Hep B carrier in the form of Occult Hep B (OBI) from a previous relationship where my ex didn't know she was a chronic carrier. OBI is super rare after "clearing" the acute infection as I was told I did 10 years ago, and I only found out a month ago that I still have the virus replicating at low levels in my liver. I'm afraid I have susceptibility that doesn't let me shake these cancer-causing viruses.
