Upon first inspection, it looks like a raised 'wort' which might point to lymphocystis.

It would be great (I know it's hard!) to get a few more pictures of that so we can get a closer look.
 
I can't see if that is a wart or a bubble, sadly.

lymphocystis issues can appear overnight, so if this comes on suddenly, looks like a wart (example below), and there are no other symptoms, then it could well be.

I have had lymphocystis on one of my Phantom Tetras - it comes and goes. I do find increasing water changes helps a little but that is not a science. The tetra in question lives with it and remains alive and healthy. They just go down after a while.

Post more information as it comes to light - but at the moment I think monitoring for a day or two is best.
