Hi and welcome to Healthcaremagic. Thank you for your query. I am Dr. Rommstein, I understand your concerns and I will try to help you as much as I can.
There are few possible causes but in every case this is something that should be evaliated and some serious diagnoses should be ruled out. In first case, i mean here on tumors which may occut in this area. However most common causes are benign and include chronic infections or cysts. YOu need to do tumor markers and CT scan more.
I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us in every time.
Kindly regards. Wish you a good health.
