Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
He may have some benign cyst like ganglion cyst, sebaceous cyst or other cystic lesion. You should go for ultrasound study and if needed go for fine needle aspiration cytology or biopsy of that lump.
It will give you exact diagnosis.
Then you should take treatment accordingly.
