Brief Answer:
ultrasond required
Detailed Answer:
Hi and welcome to HCM.
Considering your description, it is more like to be some issue related to abdominal wall rather than pelvic or abdominal cavity, but to rule this out, you should do ultrasound which will detect if this is some subcutaneous lesion such as lipoma, fibroma or lymph node or this is intraabdominal lesion such as ovarian cyst, uterus mioma or something third. If there is redness or pain then it may indicate abscess and this required surgical consultation.
In every case, it does not sound like serious issue but some work up shoul dbe done if it becomes larger or painful.
WIsh you good health. Regards

Brief Answer:
probably hernia
Detailed Answer:
Hi and welcome.
This is suggestive of hernia or abdominal wall weakness due to atrophy or muscle diastasis.
Usually, we recommend exercises to strengthen abdominal muscles and if this wont help,then surgery may be considered.
