Pea Sized Lump On Tail Bone Which Hurts On Sitting. MRI Of Pelvic Area Clear. What Could It Be?

hi, I have a pea sized lump at the bottom of my tail bone and the top of my bum crack, it moves when you make it. Hurts most when I am sitting down (slouching back against something) It sometimes goes away a bit but comes back each time. I am not sure if it is hormonal or what is could be to do with, but it is annoying and sometimes gives a warm sensation.. I had an MRI for around the pelvis and that area and it seemed to come back clear.. what could it be.. they said it didn't seem to be an in grown hair or cyst. ? Thanks

Hello.A pea-sized lump that moves and appears-disappears,malignant cause is unlikely.Lipoma (benign skin tumor) is a possible diagnosis.If you have discomfort you must go to the surgeon to assess about extirpation of the lump.
I wish you good health.(If the answer has helped you, please indicate this)
