What Causes Cold And White Bump On The Gland Under The Tongue?

Hi, I've recently been active with an ex of mine that is very active. After oral, kissing, and intercourse, I woke up the next day with a small cold, and the roof of my mouth along with the string like gland under my tongue sore but with no bumps. The next day the small
Cold persisted, the roof of my mouth is no longer sore and I have a small white bump on the string like gland under my tongue. Is this a contraction of some sort or maybe from dehydration or not eating regularly? Please help. Also I've heard of popping it because it could be a salivary stone, but it's quite small n doesn't seem popable? Help?
