Hi.

What does the bump look like? Does it appear to be filled with fluid?

It is more likely that the bumps are infectious in origin, especially with the finding of a swollen lymph node and the suddenness of appearance of the lesions.

It would be advisable to have your symptoms evaluated by a physician who can properly manage your symptoms.

Good luck.

doesn't sound like oral cancer. spreading too fast.  If the sores don't go away within two weeks, then I would have them checked out.
