What Is The Reason For 3 Year Old Having Bruise In Upper Chest And Lump Under It?

My 3 yr old daughter has a bruise in the middle of her upper chest and it has a small pea like lump under it. To my knowledge there has been no trauma to the area. I took her to the pediatrician and she said the lump was not normal but did not think much of it and wanted to wait it out. I am not sure waiting is the best option. How do I rule out some form of cancer and what might this lump be?
