What Does A Lump On The Tonsil Indicate?

About two days ago I found a small lump located right in front of my left tonsil. I haven t been to the doctor ye lt because I am so afraid that it is cancer. I have been vaping for about a half of year. Could this have caused the lump and how can I tell if the lump is cancerous or not?
