Hi
Welcome to the MedHelp forum!
In all probability this lump is a lipoma, a neurofibroma or harmless collection of nerves and fibers or it is inflammation of joint of rib abd chest bone called costochondritis.
Please consult your PCP for primary examination followed by proper referral.
Take care!

Hello,
Is it a small lump?  Is it soft or hard?  It is really difficult to say without seeing it.  But there are a couple of things that I can think of that it could be.  It could possibly be a fatty mass, a hernia, a swollen lymph node, a cyst or tumor, or an issue with your liver.

I recommend you seeing your doctor so they can examine it and determine if any further testing is needed.  I Hope This Helps!  Keep us posted.  
Good Luck and God Bless Brenda
