Growth Between Gums And Upper Lip, Growing In Size. Due To Previous Sinus Surgery?

I have a growth where my gum meets my upper lip in the center, it looks like a pink bubble and is not hard or white. Any ideas what it might be? Do I need to see a dentist or doctor? I noticed it 3 or 4 weeks ago and it is larger but not painful. Is there any chance it could be connected to the sinus surgery I had mid-October?

Dentist 's  Response
hello and welcome to HCM forum,
i would like to inform you that the soft tissue overgrowth may be linked to the sinus surgery only if it was the same area where stitches were placed following the surgery.
I advise you to keep a check on it for pain,ulceration, bleeding or even size(if it is increasing).

kindly , see the doctor who performed sinus surgery,
i hope i answered your question,
i wish you good health.
