I have pain on my lower left rib, when i try to feel the area, i think feel a very small and hard bump. could this be a lymph node? whatd cause this?

Doubt it is a lymph: This may be from an old fracture. Or other injury. If hard it could be other type of bone.Rarely it is a tumor. Just get it checked out.
