What Treatment For Large Fluid Like Lump?

My boyfriend has a large fluid like lump, about 1 and 1/2 inches in diameter. It was noticed for the first time about a day ago and is now bigger. If you push the lump with your finger, it stays indented for a short period then returns to the swollen position. He's had no head trauma, and no other sypmtoms.
