Hi ! Good morning. I am Dr Shareef answering your query.

Please be patient and do not get worried till the reports are ready.In my opinion you should wait for all the investigations to be over. As a physical examination is a must along with the investigations to arrive at a diagnosis, it won't be possible to opine on the lump as such over the net. All the best. Thanks for using healthcaremagic for your query on health.
