The other day i was feading my catfish some worms but after i stopped feeding them i moticed a giant bump on the bottom of his mouth but it sudennly went away, should i be worried about this?

No, that is the catfish trying to swallow the worm. The gular (chin region) usually enlarges during the act of swallowing, especially for large food items.
