I have read your query and understand your concern . As far as white bumps on inside lower gums is concerned this can be due to Periodontal abscess secondary to gum infection or other possibilities can be due to salivary gland infection or some irritating lesion .

Can you upload image of hard bump that will be more helpful for me to arrive at conclusion and give you proper diagnosis .

Based on details provided I will suggest you to consult oral surgeon for clinical examination and evaluation . If you have gum infection get scaling done and if it can be due salivary gland infection then investigations and some measures has to be taken .
