hi,
it depends on whether the mass is over the abdomen or in the abdomen, which you did not clearly state. i guess from your description, it is over abdomen.
A skin lesion could be a cyst or an abcess, as you have pain. subcutaneous cysts and loculated abcesses is also possible.
Mass in the abdomen under left rib cage is generally due to spleninc or stomach related masses.
without ultrasound, it is unwise to guess what it could be, as the treatment depends on proper etiology. All the best.
