There is no way a bunch of strangers on a forum can determine what you have. See your doctor and wait for the results. Guesses and suggestion in here only cause more confusion and stress. Don't guess, see the doctor and "know".

yes.

Ok you need ot relax, oral cancer is a far cry. If you are pregnant the chances are it is a pregnancy granuloma, painless and is in a lump form and on your gums. An xray wont reveal too much since it is only a soft tissue, but a biopsy may be good, but if you are in your third trimester it may not be a good idea to undergo any form of surgery as this trauma could induce labour and also not to get radiation while pregnant. There is a very high chance it is a pregnancy granuloma and it presents in patients who are pregnant and could be due to an imbalcance in hormones which occur when you get pregnant. Your gums may also be a bit inflamed in other areas this is also due to the pregnancy. You can try and go see an oral pathologist who can see you clinically if there is one around if you want to put your mid at rest. these lesions regress after surgery and with proper oral hygiene.

Ever ones gums most of the time bleed when he wash your teeth . I'm not sure about your answer . Because normally your only ment to have one lump . And if he did not seem worried about it . It mite not be it at all . i hope not . i hope my answer helped you .
