What Could Be The Reason For Having A Protruding Flap On My Cheek Inside My Mouth?

Hello, I have a protruding flap or a Whitehead like lesion on the inside right hand side of my cheek inside of my mouth. I was curious if this was some sort of cancer, bacteria or something that might be dangerous if left untreated…?? Or is this something that I can take care of with some over-the-counter medication…?? Can you help…??
