Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The white bump over the tip of the tongue can be a irritational fibroma or a lipoma secondary to trauma or injury to the tongue. Nothing to be panic, consult a oral physician and get it evaluated. If it is interfering with function then get it removed surgically.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
