Hello and welcome to HCM,
Lump anywhere on body should be investigated.
A painless lump can be due to soft tissue swelling like lipoma, fibroma, hemangioma etc.
Thus, get an aspiration cytology of the lesion.
Aspiration cytology samples cells from the lesion and the cells are examined microscopically.
This investigation determines the site and nature of lesion.
Thus, consult your doctor for this investigations.
Thanks and take care
