Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
As you describe, it appears to be a lymph gland due to some infection, in the mouth.
you need not worry about the pregnancy, it may not have any relation with the pregnancy.
I advise you to consult an E.N.T. surgeon for diagnosis.
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms cifixime, diclofenac, and antiseptic mouth gargle.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
