Thanks for your query, i have gone through your query, the lump or swelling could be a traumatic fibroma or a fibrosed mucocoele. It occurs due to trauma by the teeth like lip biting. Nothing to worry you can get it surgically removed. Its a simple procedure. Consult a oral maxillofacial surgeon for needful. I hope my answer will help you. Take care
