Red Lump Behind Two Front Teeth. Consult Dentist?

Hi, I have a red lump behind my two front teeth on the roof of my mouth and sort of growing on the teeth behind (best description I can give), and it is slightly painful ( I had hot pizza last night which inflamed it). It has been about 2 weeks and hasn't gone away. I don't have dental insurance so I don't want to go to the dentist unless necessary. I floss and brush and have white straight teeth.
