Lump what you are complaining of needs to be examined clinically to come to diagnosis what it is. Since you are complaining that it is associated with pain, it could have been probably infected.
Hence, you need to consult the Surgeon promptly for clinical evaluation and appropriate management. Further management as to by conservative means or by surgery can only be known after clinical evaluation.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
