Lump on lower spine

I found a lump that feels squishy and moves on the bottom of my back, a few inches above my tailbone. It doesn't hurt, only when touched. Does anyone know if this could be a tumor or a cyst? And if so, could they remove it, even if it is attached to my spine?

It could be a cyst,or tumor the only way to find out is go to the doctor,and as for the other question can it be removed if it is on the spinal cord,the answer is yes.To the way they do surgeries now,it is pretty much laser it off.Good luck.
