Needs to be checked: It is very hard to say what this hard lump could be without more information like how long you have had it.And if it hurts to touch.Since it has grown in size and is of concern to you.I suggest you get it checked by your family doctor.It may be a cyst,But we can only know after examining it.And it may need to be excised and sent to lab for biopsy if indicated
