You should tell us the estimated size of the lump. If the lump border is distinct and the consistency is soft, it is probably a lipoma. A cyst can present the same way with smaller size.

It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. You may watch and wait, If the lump more than doubles in size, more lumps appear, the lump ulcerates or bleeds, you get fever or weight loss, see a doctor. Wish you good health!
