I have a small lump and i'm not sure if it is cancer yet, but can it be easily treated if caught right away?

Yes: The tumors with the poorest survivals are those occurring internally where they are not diagnosed early. Any lesion that you can palpate and the has been found early and not been watched for a long time is curable if removed. A biopsy of course is indicated to make the diagnosis and then t determine the best approach for treatment if necessary.
