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.

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.
