It's good that there's no redness, swelling, fever, or discharge at present — that helps rule out some urgent infections.
However, since the area is still tender and you're experiencing discomfort, I would advise a physical examination to assess the nature of the lump — whether it's skin-related, soft tissue, or something deeper.
Early evaluation is helpful in such cases to prevent progression, even if it currently seems mild.
