What Causes A Hard Lump On The Top Of The Lips?

Today I noticed a small hard bump on the roof of my mouth. I have just gotten over a cold and have a cold sore on my lip and also I ate some fried tortilla chips that always tear up my gums could that be it? I know it wasn't there this morning when I brushed my teeth

Hi,
Thanks for posting the query,

This could be due to infection from the tooth, any type of trauma, beningn lesion.
I would suggest you to get a checkup done, an OPG radiograph of thge lesion is required.
Is the lesion painful??
Could also be due to allergic reaction.

Take care!
