What Can A Lump In Sternum Of An Infant Indicate?

My granddaughter is 10 months old and just woke up in pain on Sunday and was inconsolable for about ten minutes. Later that day, we found a quarter sized lump right at her sternum area. She has had x-ray and ultrasound and there is no idea what it is.

BS for wasting my time. I am not paying for this forum.
