1st of all check the teeth on this redbump area. If any cavity notices, Restore it or do pulpectomy of teeth. It may disappears gradually.
Its nothing to worry. This is may be just a pus filled redbump due to infected or Cavitied tooth.
Next Steps
kindly go to a pedodontist who is specialist in child dental problems.
