Hi
Thanks for writing in
The information you have provided points to a subcutaneous swelling, which could be a Lipoma, fibroma or a cyst
To come to a conclusive diagnosis you need to get examined by a surgeon and/or go for an ultrasound examination
In most cases simple excision is the only cure
Hope this helps
DO write back in case of concern
Wishing you a healthy life ahead
