Suggest Remedy For A Marble Sized Non Movable Hard Lump In The Sternum Area

I noticed a marble sized non movable hard lump on lower portion of sternum. I am currently on biological and immunosuppressant therapy for active psoriatic arthritis. The lump is tender to the touch. No chest pain or SOB. I am 47, female. Should I be concerned?
