Hard Lump On Thumb Print Area. What Is This Lump?

I have a hard lump on my thumb print area and I can see little white spots under the skin (two) . A few months ago I grabbed a hot pot from the oven and remember the thumb hurting after that. I am not sure if the lump was there prior to the burn incident. What could this be? Sometimes it hurts when I try to grab something, other times not so much.

It could be due to fibrosis following burn. If the swelling is more symptomatic then Consult your Surgeon.
Take care
