Welcome at HCM
I appreciate your health concerns...
The lump need to be examined first before a reasoned conclusion can be drawn.......
Possible differentials include cyst, boil ,lipoma etc You should meet surgeon so that it can be examined properly and appropriate treatment can be initiated...
Meanwhile stay calm and use acetaminophen to relieve pain...
Hope it helps
