Hi,
I have read your query and understand the concerns.
It could be lymph node enlargement or cystic swelling or bony swelling as in Paget's disease but the visual inspection on the swelling would confirm the diagnosis.
It may require you to undergo complete hemogram with ESR and ultrasound of swelling to rule out infective cause and to have confirmed diagnosis. The tests can be ordered by a general surgeon.
At the moment, my suggestion will be to visit a surgeon and plan for the above mentioned tests. Please send in pictures for more comments.
However,you can take symptomatic treatment meanwhile like pain killers with serratiopeptidase and antacids.
Hope this information will help and get back with clinical picture.
