HI.
The lesion is already found in the pancreas. You have to consult an Onco-surgeon for further evaluation.
Since the lesion is obvious, this may be the most probable reason for pain in abdomen.
Another reasons can be cholestasis, caused by pancreatic mass, pancreatitis itself.
Yes time is very important as timely intervention can cure the patient.
