What Causes A Painful Lump On Rhomboid Muscle?

Hello. I have a lump which seems to be in the rhomboid muscle. It feels rubbery and moves around quite easily. If pressure is put on this lump it hurts quite a bit. I have had issues with the roght sode of my back for three months now and the area that os particularly painful is my lats area just under my bra strap line. It hurts when I twist to the side. It s like a nice pain but painful. This issue started one morning when i turned my head towards my right there was a small annoying intermittent pain that last like 2 seconds. What could possibly be causing the lump? I m scared it is a lipoma?

according to your description about the consistency and movement of the lump most probably it is lipoma , I can suggest ultrasound scan to get the nature of the lump then you can go for treatment options
