thanks for your query, i have gone through your query, the lump on the tongue could be a traumatic fibroma due to chronic bitting...the whitish srea is also because of chronic biting..cosult your oral physician and get it excised and remove the cause like rounding off the sharp cuspal edges of the teeth causing trauma,,..i hope my answer will help you...take care..
