Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain it seems that there is formation of a tooth abscess due to deep decay in your leading to pus accumulation below the root tips of the tooth and formation of a lump over the gums..

I would suggest you to get an x ray of tooth done and as it is a front tooth it will be followed by Root Canal treatment and medication like antibiotics and painkillers for permanent resolution..

Capping of tooth will further help in providing strength to the tooth..

Hope this helps..

Regards..
