Bump on gum?


I have a bump on my gum. its not the usual thing i read here in answers that its on the tooth or whatever, mine is just behind the corner of my mouth. before its just pink and annoying(especially when eating), small and doesnt hurt a bit. i was noticing it getting smaller. today when i woke up i noticed it become bigger, around 1/4 inch in diameter. its dark red, but uniquely dark red only on the bump, its immediate surroundings still pink. doesnt hurt still. but i kinda taste blood every now and then. there's a bit of white in the middle. i've read that abscess hurts, so does mine count as one even though it doesnt?

Have you got your wisdom teeth yet? If not than this is what it sounds like, congratulations. (You do realize I'm being a smart aleck right?) Trust me you would know if it was an abcess, they DO hurt!!!!!!
