Hi, dear.
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. Your lump may arise from adipose tissue or may be from neuronal original. So you go for biopsy first. Then you should take treatment according to your biopsy diagnosis.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
