Hi and welcome to Healthcaremagic. Thank you for your query. I am Dr. Rommstein, I understand your concerns and I will try to help you as much as I can.
I am not sure if this lump is is related to your symptoms since this is obviously subcutaneously located and this is not interfering with movements inside the joint,but in every case you should do xrays to see is there arhrosis or calcifications. And for this lump you need to do ultrasound for better evaluation.
I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us in every time.
Kindly regards. Wish you a good health.
DR. Ivan Rommstein
