Hi and welcome to Healthcaremagic. Thank you for your query.
Considering your description this may be benign subcutaneous lesion such as lipoma, fibroma or atheroma and if there are no skin changes such as redness, pus discharge or pain and fever then you should not be worried since it can be easily surgically removed under local anesthesia. Then it there are doubts it can be sent to the patohistologic analysis.
Wish you good health. Regards
