Hi Welcome to hcm Hard lump under ribcage mostly is some bony growth. But soreness is not seen in common bony lumps unless some infection is there. You should see a surgeon for confirmation of diagnosis. Chest x ray should be taken and one needle biopsy is required. Soft lump with soreness may be tuberculosis of ribcage. Regards.
