small red bump on the roof of my mouth near tonsils?

I noticed a small red bump on the roof of my mouth where my tonsil area begins. I have had it for a few months now and sometimes it gets irritated/inflamed. Other than that I think its always there. Does anyone know what this is or what it could be?

Maybe a polyp. I would go to the doctor to get it checked out, as normally it is benign but it could possibly be cancerous.

Don’t worry though, it’s most likely something else, less scary.
