hi.
it is best if you consult with a doctor, preferably a general surgeon, for medical and physical examination. based from your description, it could be a cyst (a sebaceous or a keratinous type). these lesions can occur anywhere in the body and have the tendency to recur. it could also be other types of tumor lesions best evaluated clinically. further diagnostics (such as imaging and tissue diagnosis) and management (medical and surgical) will be directed accordingly.
hope this helps.
good day!!
