Hello,
* Likely to be due to soft tissue lesion as a sebaceous cyst or else with secondary bacterial infection causing pain on touch.
* If you can provide me a photo picture of the same in private consultation, I can guide further precisely in this topic.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
