Hi
Thanks for your query with HCM,
It would have better if you had mentioned your age since you say it is erupting and whether the tooth is having any decay?
Coming to lump it could be either periapical or periodontal abscess
I would suggest you to visit your dentist for the best treatment don't delay if you want to save the toooth though it depends on the condition.
Hope my answer would be helpful.
