for the past year I have had a small lump on my gum above my top teeth.
I have managed to successfully avoid it until now, I am starting to worry.
I can easily scrape it off with my nail but it always grows back.
Could there be any explanation to what it is that doesn't involve cancer and is it worth going to the doctor?
I am worried if I go to the doctor, my health anxiety (which has been successfully decreased by CBT) will re start and I don't want unecessary worry for something that could be harmless.
