Hard bump on gum 5 weeks after extraction

[EllieJane44]

Hi
Looking for some advice
I had my upper molar removed 5 weeks ago and from about 2/3 after have had little pain. The hole has pretty much covered over but it still deep

Yesterday with my tounge I noticed a little bump or lump in the gum just around where the tooth was . Edge of socket is best to describe it. It def a little bump and it might be a little sore (maybe from me feeling it every minute !)
Just wondered if that is just the gum hardening or something I should get checked .
Anyone had anything similar
It kinda like bump babies have before a tooth erupts but my tooth is gone and it not in the socket just on edge of gum

Bizarre

Thx

Ellie

It’s not uncommon for the edge of the socket to be a bit proud and be felt as a lump as things heal. It should remodel over time
