Brief Answer:
Please get it examined.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
It is most likely a benign cyst like a Dermoid.
But please get it examined by your GP or a Surgeon.
It is better to get it evaluated and probably removed by a small surgery or excisional biopsy.
Take care and do let me know if there are any queries on this issue.
