Brief Answer:
Gingivitis.

Detailed Answer:
Hello, XXXXXXX
Thanks for posting a query,
I have gone through your attached photographs.

It looks like gingivitis.
The nodule you are complaining of is due to lymph node. which usually appears in all sort of infections. Nothing to worry about it, will vanish by self after the infection is gone.

I suggest you to use METROGYL DG gel for local application 3 times daily.
And TAB. COMBIFLAM 1 TABLET 2 TIMES FOR 3 DAYS.

any query do follow up.

Take care.
