Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
As you describe it appears to be the lipoma,a growth of the fat deposit. It has nothing to do with the body fat and obasity.Even the thin person also can have it.
It has no hazards on the body. If you want to get it removed for cosmetic purpose you can get it excised by a surgeon.
Wish you good luck. Thank you.
