General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi,
Welcome to health care magic,

I have read your query regarding lump and understand the concern.

This lump needs to be visually inspected at least once to make a diagnosis.

Without this examination, it will be slightly difficult for me to go for any further comments or even difficult to put one or two differential diagnosis.

So,it would be helpful for me if you can take the picture of the site and upload it as there is a feature to send images on the right side of query page.

However,it looks to be having cystic swelling or boil as per your description but can be said exactly after clinical examination.

Also,is there pain associated with this lump?

You may see some local doctor or surgical specialist for proper clinical evaluation of this lump.

Regards,
I find this answer helpful
