Strange gum problem

A week ago I had this weird bump thing on my gum right between my 2 teeth.
My parents told me i didnt really have to worry about it and told me to rinse with some warm salt water and listerine.
Last night i got pretty vex and decided to pop it. When i applied pressure to the spot blood came out. After a while the bump just fills up again and i pop it again. This is really bugging me guys so any of guys had this before and if so knows what to do?

Yeah they are (usually) quite normal.
I'm gonna say this ONCE, and ONLY once. So sick of these topics where people are afraid to...
visit a Farking doctor! DO ITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
Though I agree popping it is a bad idea. All you're doing is allowing more bacteria inside.
WIN!

Mouth tends to heal fast, but its full of bacteria, you don't wanna risk an infection. Just go and see the doctor like the others said.

dont pop it, just leave it be, usually heals by itself.

It's cancer, you need a surgery right away.

oh neat, since when does surgery cures cancer.
I say you have about a week or two. Enjoy life while you still can.
Do you even know what causes cancer?

popping it was just insane, lightly brush it when you brush your teeth and practice better oral care from now on. i don't get those so im not sure what your talking about.

Well from what you've described I'm pretty sure it's infected gum. Need better oral hygiene because bad oral hygiene is what causes your gum to become infected.

Either an infected gum or an abscess. If it's the former, antibiotics and some salt swishes will cure it up. If it's an abscess, say bb to your tooth. That's what happened to me. I had a teeth pulled, but guess on its way out it cut something. When the adult tooth grew it, there was an abscess so it had to be removed and the gum cleaned out.
