Hi.

Try not to worry.
It's probably nothing but the fact you keep prodding it will I'm sure make it ache.
We all do it. We find something we worry about then keep touching or prodding until it does actually get sore then we worry so prod more.
It's the vicious circle of health anxiety

I have a little hard round movable lump on my leg that can slide around quite an area, I can hide it at the sideof leg behind the muscle so you can't feel it but if I pull it onto the top of my bone its actually visible. I have had it at least a year and the Dr said it is just a cyst and as its mobile its not sinister, he said sinister lumps don't move around!
