Thank you for your question. A few things to consider,
1. When did it start?
2.Does it hurt?
3. Any past pain or history of infection where th ball is?
Sometimes, a yellow ball in gum, could refer to an active infection from a tooth causing the pus to collect and form a sac which look like a ball in the gum. However it could also be something else, so I would advise that if is persists please go to your dentist to get it checked out.
Regards
Dr Beth
