Hi,
You are having density in soft tissue. So you can investigate further with ultrasonography examination. It will help in deciding further management for that. If than any further work up needed, investigate with MRI or CT scan. I suggest you consult physician for examination.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
