My mother aged 55 and diabetic has developed a painful hard lump above her collarbone on her left side two days ago all of a sudden...it's very sensitive and painful to touch...Should we go for fnac/ biopsy? Does it points to anything cancerous

If it's painful,  most likely it's infections or benign.. but FNAC is must. An ENT specialist in your city will guide you best after complete history & examination.
Next Steps
Antibiotics & antiinflammatory will be prescribed.
