Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
It's most probably lipoma which is a common swelling of fat tissue.Unless it's causing you discomfort you don't have to worry about it. If it's causing pain then you can see a surgeon who will remove.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
