Cyst?

I have a lump underneath my skin near my pelvic region i actually want to say it's on my pelvic bone area on the side. It's been there for about a month or so, it moves around but does have a slight pain when I touch it. I thought that it was going away, I had another one similar, but a lot smaller that has gone away but that one didn't cause any discomfort either. Could it be a type of cyst and should I see my family physician about it or my obygn ?
I did just have my annual done and completely forgot to mention it along with that I thought that it was going away.

Hi.  Just have it checked by your family doctor.  From your description, it seems to me to be one of the common non-cancerous lesions like lipoma (a lump consisting of fat cells) or an epidermal inclusion cyst ( an accumulation of oily secretions from skin glands).
